, which does not contain the speed
A faster proton goes round a smaller circle, so it takes less time, but only for a field above

A faster proton takes more time, since it has more energy
The time for one turn depends only on the radius

← A proton is sped up from rest through 2400 V and enters a magnetic field of 0.19 T at right angles. What is the radius of its circle?
A proton and an alpha particle start from rest and are sped up through the same voltage. Then each enters the same uniform field at right angles. An alpha particle has twice the charge and four times the mass of a proton. What is the ratio of the radius of the alpha circle to that of the proton circle? →
