A particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ moving with a velocity $\vec{v}=v_0(\hat{i}+\hat{j}-\hat{k})$ is placed in a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B}=B_0(\hat{i}+\hat{j}+\hat{k})$. It executes a helical trajectory of radius $r$ and pitch $p$. Which of the following options is correct?

A

$$ r=\frac{2 \sqrt{2} m v_0}{3 q B_0} \text { and } p=\frac{2 \pi m v_0}{3 q B_0} $$

B

$$ r=\frac{m v_0}{3 q B_0} \text { and } p=\frac{2 \pi m v_0}{3 q B_0} $$

C

$$ r=\frac{2 \sqrt{2} m v_0}{3 q B_0} \text { and } p=\frac{4 \sqrt{2} \pi m v_0}{3 q B_0} $$

D

$$ r=\frac{2 \pi m v_0}{3 q B_0} \text { and } p=\frac{2 \sqrt{2} m v_0}{3 q B_0} $$
