In a linear accelerator, protons are accelerated from rest through a potential difference to a speed of approximately 3.27 × 106 m/s. The resulting proton beam produces a current of 2.53 × 10−6 A. The mass of the proton is 1.67 × 10−27 kg and its charge on the proton is 1.6 × 10−19 C. Determine the potential difference through which the protons were accelerated. Answer in units of V.

If the beam is stopped in a target, determine the amount of thermal energy that is produced in the target in one minute. Answer in units of J.
