An electron is moving with a speed of $10^8 \ m/s$ perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of intensity $B$. Suddenly,the intensity of the magnetic field is reduced to $B/2$. The radius of the path becomes from the original value of $r$:

  • A
    No change
  • B
    Reduces to $r/2$
  • C
    Increases to $2r$
  • D
    Stops moving
