The two cables in part (c) are suspended a constant distance apart. Explain how the magnetic forces acting between the cables vary during the course of one cycle of the alternating current (ac).

Show that the radius of the path is about 6 cm.

The speed of the proton is 2.16 × 10⁶ m s^-1 and the magnetic field strength is 0.042 T. For this proton, determine, in m, the radius of the circular path. Give your answer to an appropriate number of significant figures.
