Determine the required magnetic field strength within each of the 42 identical bending magnets in a cyclotron, akin to the one used in particle acceleration. The electrons travel along a circular arc with a length of 0.8 m around each magnet, while maintaining a velocity of 3.2 × 107 m/s. It is assumed that there is a uniform magnetic field inside the magnet and zero magnetic field outside.
