Eels are able to generate current with biological cells called electroplaques. The electroplaques in an eel are arranged in I 00 rows, each row stretching horizontally along the body of the fish containing 5000 electroplaques. The arrangement is suggestively shown below. Each electroplaques has an emf of 0.15 V and internal resistance of 0.25 Ω

The water surrounding the eel completes a circuit between the head and its tail. If the water surrounding it has a resistance of 500 Ω, the current an eel can produce in water is about

  • 1.5 A

  • 3.0 A

  • 15 A

  • 30 A

The cyclotron frequency of an electron  gyrating in a magnetic field of  1 T approximately

  • 28 MHz

  • 280 MHz

In a cyclotron, the centripetal force is provided by the transverse magnetic field B, and the force on a particle travelling in a magnetic field ( which cause it to curve ) is equal to 'Bqv'. 

In cyclotron,

centripetal force = magnetic force

i.e  vr = Bqm

where  vr = ω

∴  ω = B qm

And cyclotron frequency

    v = q B2π m

       = 1.6 × 10-19 × 12 × 3.14 × 9.1 × 10-31

   v = 28 × 109 Hz

   v = 28 GHz
