$A$ photon of energy $E$ ejects photoelectrons from a metal surface whose work function is $W_0$. If this electron enters into a uniform magnetic field with induction $B$ in a direction perpendicular to the field and describes a circular path of radius $r$,then the radius is given by

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{2 e(E-W_0)}{m B}}$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{2(E-W_0) m}}{e B}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{2 m(E-W_0)}{m B}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{2 m(E-W_0) e B}$
