Q10: A Van de Graaff generator produces a beam of 2.00-MeV deuterons, which are heavy hydrogen nuclei containing a proton and a neutron.
(a) If the beam current is mA, what is the average separation of the deuterons?
(b) Is the electrical force of repulsion among them a significant factor in beam stability? Explain.
Mass of Proton =
Mass of Nuetron=
Charge on Proton=
KE of Beam (2MeV)
