If two deuterium nuclei (charge +e, mass 3.34Γ10β27kg) get close enough together, the attraction of the strong nuclear force will fuse them to make an isotope of helium, releasing vast amounts of energy. The range of this force is about 10β15m. This is the principle behind the fusion reactor. The deuterium nuclei are moving much too fast to be contained by physical walls, so they are confined magnetically.
Part A
How fast would two nuclei have to move so that in a head-on collision they would get close enough to fuse? (Treat the nuclei as point charges, and assume that a separation of 1.0Γ10β15m is required for fusion.)
v =
m/s
Part B
What strength magnetic field is needed to make deuterium nuclei with this speed travel in a circle of diameter 2.00 m ?
B = T
