A cyclotron is used to accelerate
- A Oneutron
- B only positively charged particles
- C only negatively charged particles
- D both positively and negatively charged particles
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) only positively charged particles
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A cyclotron is used to accelerate only positively charged particles. Cyclotron accelerates charged atomic and subatomic
particles by alternating electric field while following an outward spiral or circular path in a magnetic field.
