Question

discribe with principal, the construction and working of a cyclotron​

Answer 1

Cyclotron is a device used to accelerate charged particles to high energies. It was devised by Lawrence. Cyclotron works on the principle that a charged particle moving normal to a magnetic field experiences magnetic lorentz force due to which the particle moves in a circular path

Answer 2

Cyclotron :

Cyclotron is a device used to accelerate the charged particles to gain large kinetic energy. It is also called as high energy accelerator. It was invented by Lawrence and Livingston in 1934.

Principle :

When a charged particle moves normal to the magnetic field, it experiences magnetic Lorentz force

.

Limitations of cyclotron :

(a) the speed of the ion is limited

(b) electron cannot be accelerated

(c) uncharged particles cannot be accelerated.
