In cyclotron, the time taken by an ion to describe semicircular path in a dee is

  1. A dependent on speed of ion.
  2. B independent of mass of ion.
  3. C independent of speed of ion and radius of circular path.
  4. D dependent on radius of circular path.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) independent of speed of ion and radius of circular path.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(T=\frac{2 \pi m}{q B}\)
\(T\) is independent of radius and speed.
