What is the period of revolution of alpha particles in a cyclotron with a radius of 0.50 meters, if it is known that the mass of particles is m = 6.64*10−27kg, and their charge is q = 3.2*10−19C? Consider the magnetic field created in the cyclotron equal to 1.8 T. Also calculate the value of their maximum kinetic energy.
