You misunderstand the process. Particles Accelerators use
static electric and magnetic FIELDS to accelerate charged particles,
not electromagnetic WAVES.
Fields have no velocity, but an injected charged particle will
travel at a velocity that depends uniquely on the intensity of
the fields. A very precise fields ratio will cause the particles
to move in a straight line, and all other ratios will cause the
particles to move along any chosen circular path.
Charged particles moving in EM fields do not behave as an
object in water.
To understand the difference, I suggest you start by reading
and understanding undergrad intros to physics, such as
Halliday & Resnick Physics or Sears Zermansky & Young
University Physics, or any other similar work.
You should also document yourself from formal sources
to understand the notion of relativistic mass.
Most of your questions will be answered by such learning.
