Some forms of cancer can be treated using proton therapy in which proton beams are accelerated to high energies, then directed to collide into a tumor, killing the malignant cells. suppose a proton accelerator is 4.50 m long and must accelerate protons from rest to a speed of 1.00- 107 m/s. ignore any relativistic effects and determine the magnitude of the average electric field that could accelerate these protons. mass of proton is 1.673- 10ˆ’27 kg and charge of proton is 1.602- 10⁻¹⁹ c.
a) 2.34 × 10⁶ N/C
b) 3.56 × 10⁶ N/C
c) 1.20 × 10⁷ N/C
d) 4.30 × 10⁷ N/C
