Two charged particles $A$ and $B$ of masses $m$ and $2m$, charges $2q$ and $3q$ respectively, moving with the same velocity, enter a uniform magnetic field such that both particles make the same angle $( < 90^{\circ} )$ with the direction of the magnetic field. Then the ratio of the pitches of the helical paths of the particles $A$ and $B$ is

  • A
    $4:3$
  • B
    $3:2$
  • C
    $3:4$
  • D
    $2:3$
