A charged particle is accelerated in magnetic field if it has a velocity. F = Q v x B, where v x B is cross-product of speed and magnetic flux vectors. According to Newton F = ma where you can find the acceleration if you know the mass.

DO charged particles have a magnetic field?
if charge particle is in motion ,then it has magnetic field
Cyclotrons and synchrotrons accelerate charged particles by repeatedly supplying them with the pulses of?
electromagnetic fields. These fields are generated by powerful magnets which create a strong magnetic field. The particles are then guided in circular paths, and as they pass through the electromagnetic field pulses, they gain energy and accelerate. This process is repeated multiple times to achieve the desired energy for the particles.
What type of field would deflect alpha and beta particles?
A magnetic field would deflect both alpha and beta particles, as would a charged electric field.
Why do charged particles from outer space like cosmic rays strike Earth more frequently at the poles than at the equator?
Charged particles are attracted to magnetic fields, and therefore are attracted to the magnetic poles of the Earth.
Does Jupiter have Auroras?
Yes Jupiter does have aurorae. This is because Jupiter has a magnetic field that can attract the electrically charged particles emitted from the Sun, as well as the charged particles given off by Jupiter's volcanic moon, Io. The auroral emission is caused by electrically charged particles striking atoms in the upper atmosphere from above. The particles travel along Jupiter's magnetic field lines. This is the same mechanism that causes auroras on Earth
A synchrotron can accelerate charged particles to high speeds because?
A synchrotron has a time-dependent guiding magnetic field.
DO charged particles have a magnetic field?
if charge particle is in motion ,then it has magnetic field
Will a charged particles at rest be affected by a magnetic field?
Yes.
What are three things that a magnetic field may do to moving charged particles?
Accelerate the particle but not beyond C, the speed of light Decelerate the particle Divert the particle's path.
How does the Earth's magnetic field deflect charged particles?
A charged particle naturally changes direction in a magnetic field. This is because any charged particle produces a magnetic field when it is moving. And if the charged particle is moving through a magnetic field, the two fields (in this case the Earth's and the one created by the moving particle) interact to deflect the particle. The particle will be deflected "to the side" or laterally, and positively charged particles will be deflected in the opposite direction of negatively charged one.
Why do charged particles from the sun (the solar wind) get trapped in the van Allen radiation belts?
The Van Allen belts are caused by Earth's magnetic field. Charged particles are deflected in the presence of a magnetic field.
Cyclotrons and synchrotrons accelerate charged particles by repeatedly supplying them with the pulses of?
electromagnetic fields. These fields are generated by powerful magnets which create a strong magnetic field. The particles are then guided in circular paths, and as they pass through the electromagnetic field pulses, they gain energy and accelerate. This process is repeated multiple times to achieve the desired energy for the particles.
How does earth's magnetic field help human beings?
The Earth's magnetic field deflects solar winds which contain charged particles. These particles would be fatal to human beings.
What causes the lights?
The Sun's magnetic field produces charged particles and these charged particles are usually radiated out into space. Sometimes these charged particles may be caught in Earth's magnetic field and as they enter the upper atmosphere of Earth, they are in contact with other gases in the upper atmosphere and emit light and colors. The solar wind reacts to the Earth's magnetic field and then spreads across the ionosphere (the upper, charged layer of our atmosphere).
Prevents charged particles from the sun from reaching the surface?
The Earth is protected from the sun's charged particles by its magnetic field. The Earths magnetic field is generated within its molten iron core. Other examples of planets with magnetic fields include: Mercury, Jupiter, Ganymede (Ganymede is the largest moon in the solar system) , Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.Mercury has a relitivley weak magnetic field. It is so weak that the suns charged particles can reach the surface of Mercury. +++ Also the atmosphere.
What type of field would deflect alpha and beta particles?
A magnetic field would deflect both alpha and beta particles, as would a charged electric field.
What function is performed by earth magnetic field?
charged particles from the sun are prevented from reaching Earth
