Schematic sketch of cyclotron:
The combination of crossed electric and magnetic fields is used to increase the energy of the charged particle. Cyclotron uses the fact that the frequency of revolution of the charged particle in a magnetic field is independent of its energy. Inside the dees the particle is shielded from the electric field and magnetic field acts on the particle and makes it to go round in a circular path inside a dee. Every time the particle moves from one dee to the other it comes under the influence of electric field which ensures to increase the energy of the particle as the sign of the electric field changed alternately. The increased energy increases the radius of the circular path so the accelerated particle moves in a spiral path.
Since radius of trajectory,
`r =(vm)/(qB)`
`therefore v = (rqB)/m`
Hence, the kinetic energy of ions,
`1/2 mv^2`
`1/2 m (r^2 q^2 B^2)/m^2`
`= 1/2 (r^2q^2B^2)/m`

Two metal strips, each of length l, are clamped parallel to each other on a horizontal floor with a separation b between them. A wire of mass m lies on them perpendicularly, as shown in the figure. A vertically-upward magnetic field of strength B exists in the space. The metal strips are smooth but the coefficient of friction between the wire and the floor is µ. A current i is established when the switch S is closed at the instant t = 0. Discuss the motion of the wire after the switch is closed. How far away from the strips will the wire reach?
