Accelerating charges radiate electromagnetic waves. calculate the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton of mass mp moving in a circular path perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude b. (use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: q and c.)

Explanation:

Let is the mass of proton. It is moving in a circular path perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude B.

The magnetic force is balanced by the centripetal force acting on the proton as :

r is the radius of path,

Time period is given by :

Frequency of proton is given by :

The wavelength of radiation is given by :

So, the wavelength of radiation produced by a proton is . Hence, this is the required solution.
