Question
The Tevatron accelerator at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) outside
Chicago boosts protons to 1TeV (1000GeV) in five stages (the numbers given in parentheses
represent the total kinetic energy at the end of each stage):Cockcroft-Walton (750keV), Linac
(400MeV), Booster (8GeV), Main ring or injector (150GeV), and finally the Tevatron itself
(1TeV).
What is the speed of the proton at the end of each stage?
