A charged particle of mass and charge is released from the origin with a velocity in a uniform magnetic field
If represents the pitch (in meters) of the helical path described by the particle, the find the value of to the nearest integer .
Details and Assumptions:
Consider a standard Right-handed Cartesian coordinate system.

The velocity vector makes an angle 60° with the given magnetic field.
The pitch of the helix is = 2 π m v cos θ ÷ q B = 7 8 . 5
