A muon (a charged particle with a mass between that of an electron and a proton that is found in cosmic rays) follows a circular orbit in earth's \(50 \mu \mathrm{T}\) field at a frequency of \(6.8 \mathrm{kHz}\). At what frequency would a muon orbit in Jupiter's more intense \(430 \mu \mathrm{T}\) field?
