State Lenz law |
The direction of the induced emf is such that it will try to oppose the change of flux that is producing it |
|
Explain why a proton travels in a semicircular path in a dee in a cyclotron |
The force on the proton due to the magnetic field in the Dee is perpendicular to the motion of the proton. It acts as a centripetal force, causing circular motion |
|
Charged Particles of different masses are accelerated from the same point to a detector, travelling a distance L. How can the mass of the particles be deduced from measuring the time intervals of each as it travels? |
All Particles are given the same (kinetic) energy when accelerated. Higher mass particles will therefore travel slower, taking a longer time to travel |
