Suppose the initial speed of the proton in the figure( Figure 1) is decreased. Part A Does the time spent in each of the field regions increase, decrease, or stay the same? Figure 1 of 1 B₂ B₁ B3 increases decreases stays the same Submit Request Answer Part B Choose the best explanation from among the following: With a smaller speed the proton is forced out of each magnetic region more quickly, which results in a decrease in the time. The time for an orbit in a magnetic field is independent of speed. Therefore, the time the proton spends in each of magnetic regions is the same no matter what its speed. The proton moves more slowly, and therefore the time spent moving through each of magnetic regions will increase. Submit Request Answer Provide Feedback Next >
