A charged particle is moving in a cyclotron. What is the effect on time for one revolution of this charged particle, when its radius of the orbit is doubled?

  1. A It will also double
  2. B It will be halved
  3. C It will remains unchanged
  4. D It will increase by four times
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) It will remains unchanged

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The time period for one revolution in a cyclotron is given by \( T = \frac{2\pi m}{qB} \). Since \( T \) is independent of the radius \( r \), doubling the radius has no effect on the time for one revolution. It will remains unchanged.
