Two ions have equal masses but one is singly ionized and the second is doubly ionized. They are projected from the same place in a uniform transverse magnetic field with the same velocity. Then:
$(a)$ Both ions will move along circles of equal radii.
$(b)$ The radius of the circle described by the singly ionized charge is double the radius of the circle described by the doubly ionized charge.
$(c)$ Both circles do not touch each other.
$(d)$ Both circles touch each other.
