$A$ particle of charge $q$ and mass $m$ enters a region of a transverse electric field of $E_{0} \hat{j}$ with initial velocity $v_{0} \hat{i}$. The time taken for the change in the de-Broglie wavelength of the charge from the initial value of $\lambda_{0}$ to $\lambda_{0} / 3$ is proportional to

  • A
    $q/m$
  • B
    $m/q$
  • C
    $\sqrt{q/m}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{m/q}$
