Electromagnetic radiation is emitted by accelerating charges.
The rate at which energy is emitted from an accelerating charge
that has charge q and acceleration a is given by
where c is the speed of light. (a) Verify that this equation is
dimensionally correct. (b) If a proton with a kinetic energy of 6.0
MeV is traveling in a particle accelerator in a circular orbit of
radius 0.750 m, what fraction of its energy does it radiate per
second? (c) Consider an electron orbiting with the same speed and
radius. What fraction of its energy does it radiate per second?
