Suppose a cyclotron is operated at an oscillator frequency of 12 MHz ( MegaHertz) and has a radius of R=53 cm. A deuteron, an isotope of hydrogen, consisting of a proton and a neutron and therefore having the same charge as a proton is to be accelerated in the cyclotron. Its mass, m=3.24 x10-27 kg. What is the resulting kinetic energy of the deuteron? Explain in not less than 3 sentences.
