An electron and a proton enter a region of uniform magnetic field in a direction at right angles to the field with the same kinetic energy. They describe circular paths of radius $r_e$ and $r_p$ respectively. Then:

An electron enters a magnetic field whose direction is perpendicular to the velocity of the electron. Then

An $\alpha$-particle travels in a circular path of radius $0.45\,m$ in a magnetic field $B = 1.2\,Wb/m^2$ with a speed of $2.6 \times 10^7\,m/s$. The period of revolution of the $\alpha$-particle is:
