A cosmic-ray proton in interstellar space has an energy of 10.0 MeV and executes a circular orbit having a radius equal to that of Mercury’s orbit around the Sun (5.80 × 1010m). What is the magnetic field in that region of space?

The value is

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The energy is

The  radius  is  

Generally the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

Where m is the mass of  proton with value  

 v is the velocity of the proton which is mathematically deduced  from the formula for kinetic energy as

Here E is also equivalent to kinetic energy of the proton so

So  

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
