$A$ charged particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ is projected with velocity $v$ into a region of uniform magnetic field $B$ confined between two parallel plates separated by a distance $d$,as shown in the figure. What is the condition for the charged particle not to strike the opposite plate?

The distance moved by a charged particle along the magnetic field (the component of velocity is parallel to the magnetic field) in one rotation is given by ($m$ - mass of the particle,$v$ - velocity of the particle,$q$ - charge of the particle,$B$ - magnetic field).
