Field of a circular loop: Two coaxial circular coils of radius R = 15 cm, each carrying 4.0 A in the same direction, are positioned a distance d = 20 cm apart, as shown in the figure. Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field halfway between the coils along the line connecting their centers. (μ0 = 4π × 10-7 T ∙ m/A)

In proton-beam therapy, a high-energy beam of protons is fired at a tumor. As the protons stop in the tumor, their kinetic energy breaks apart the tumor’s DNA, thus killing the tumor cells. For one patient, it is desired to deposit 0.11 J of proton energy in the tumor. To create the proton beam, protons are accelerated from rest through a 1.2×104 kV potential difference. What is the total charge of the protons that must be fired at the tumor?

In proton-beam therapy, a high-energy beam of protons is fired at a tumor. As the protons stop in the tumor, their kinetic energy breaks apart the tumor’s DNA, thus killing the tumor cells. For one patient, it is desired to deposit 0.08 J of proton energy in the tumor. To create the proton beam, protons are accelerated from rest through a 8.0×103 kV potential difference. What is the total charge of the protons that must be fired at the tumor?
