A box having a weight of 8 lb is moving around in a circle of radius rA = 2 ft with a speed of (vA)1 = 5 ft/s while connected to the end of a rope. If the rope is pulled inward with a constant speed of vr = 4 ft/s, determine the speed of the box at the instant rB = 1 ft. How much work is done after pulling in the rope from A to B? Neglect friction and the size of the box

Cyclotrons are widely used in nuclear medicine for producing short-lived radioactive isotopes. these cyclotrons typically accelerate h- (the hydride ion, which has one proton and two electrons) to an energy of 5 mev to 20 mev. this ion has a mass very close to that of a proton because the electron mass is negligible—about 1 2000 of the proton’s mass. a typical magnetic field in such cyclotrons is 1.9 t. (a) what is the speed of a 5.0-mev h-? (b) if the h- has energy 5.0 mev and b = 1.9 t, what is the radius of this ion’s circular orbit?
