$A$ proton and a deuteron,both having the same kinetic energy,enter perpendicularly into a uniform magnetic field $B$. For the motion of the proton and deuteron on circular paths of radii ${R_p}$ and ${R_d}$ respectively,the correct statement is:

  • A
    ${R_d} = \sqrt{2} \,{R_p}$
  • B
    ${R_d} = {R_p}/\sqrt{2}$
  • C
    ${R_d} = {R_p}$
  • D
    ${R_d} = 2{R_p}$
