The Bevatron accelerator at the Lawrence BerkeleyLaboratory accelerated protons to a kinetic energy of6.3 GeV. What magnetic fi eld was necessary to keepthe protons traveling in a circle of 15.2 m? (See 56.)
Vectors Position and displacement vectors Vector Addition and subtraction Velocity and acceleration vectors Multiplying vectors Vector and Scalar Vector: a quantity that has both magnitude and direction Scalar: a quantity that has only magnitude How to express a Vector: Graphical: An arrow with a magnitude and directions Components: a component of a vector is the projection of the vector on an axis; the x- component and the y-component. o Magnitude is the square root of x + y 2 Unit vectors: a vector that has a magnitude of 1 and points in a particular directions; it specifies only a direction. Position Vector The Location of a particle relative to the origin is given by a
