$A$ proton of mass $m$ moving with a speed $v$ ($v << c$, where $c$ is the velocity of light in vacuum) completes a circular orbit in time $T$ in a uniform magnetic field. If the speed of the proton is increased to $\sqrt{2}v$, what will be the time needed to complete the circular orbit?

  • A
    $\sqrt{T}$
  • B
    $T$
  • C
    $\frac{T}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{T}{2}$
