$A$ particle with charge-to-mass ratio $\frac{q}{m} = \alpha$ is shot with a speed $v$ towards a wall at a distance $d$,moving perpendicular to the wall. The minimum value of the magnetic field $\vec{B}$ that exists in this region,perpendicular to the velocity of the particle,such that the particle does not hit the wall is:

  • A
    $\frac{v}{\alpha d}$
  • B
    $\frac{2v}{\alpha d}$
  • C
    $\frac{v}{2\alpha d}$
  • D
    $\frac{v}{4\alpha d}$
