Explanation / Answer

Dear Student

We know

n = (g/2p)B

where n = frequency , g = gyromagnetic ratio p= pi and B = magnetic field

It comes as energy = Planks constant * frequency and again energy = (hg/2p)B

In the given problem for 31P gyromagnetic ratio = 1.0839*108 magnetic field = 14.1 T, the value of pi = 3.14

So frequency = (1.0839*108 *14.1)/2*3.14 = 2.433*108 Hz = 243.3 MHz

The base frequency of the magnet is 243.3 MHz

If the operating frequency = 900 MHz

Then

900*1000000 = (1.0839*108 *B)/2*3.14

So B = 900*1000000*2*3.14/1.0839*100000000 = 52.14 T

So answer = 52.14 T

As frequency is directly proportional with the magnetic field so when magnetic field = 14.1 then frequencyis nearly 245Hz. When frequency is 900 i.e. 4 times than that of the previous frequency so magnetic field will also be four times and is is nearly 52 T.

Frequency = 243.3 Hz magnetic field = 14.1 T and

frequency = 900 Hz magnetic field = 52.14 T
