|
Why do are protons in particle accelerated to close to the speed of light in particle accelerators?
|
|
To conserve momentum
|
|
|
To create mini black holes
|
|
|
So extra energy is available to create new mass
|
|
|
Because time slows down close to the speed of light

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The higher the energy of the beam of particles, the larger the radius that is needed to turn the particles around and return them through the accelerator section.
Detailed explanation-2: -If there are no other forces keeping the objects in place, the electric force will accelerate them. With an accelerator, physicists apply an electric force again and again to continually accelerate particles such as electrons, positrons, protons or antiprotons.
