Question Image

As the magnetic field is along the x-axis, the magnetic force will be along (–) z-axis from t = 0 to t = T0 and along (+)ve z-axis from t = T0 to t = 2T0.
For t = 0 to t = T0 :–

Question Image

 At t =T02; x-coordinate =V0cosθT02=P02
 Since pitch =P0=V0cosθT0
y-coordinate = 0 (from figure)
and z-coordinate = – 2 R0 (from figure)
Hence (A) is correct.
Similarly at t=3T02;
coordinates are 3P02,0,2R0 Hence (B) is correct.
Note : z -coordinate will be + 2R0, because from t = T0 to t = 2T0, direction of changes.
As the charge will perform circular motion about x-axis, the two extremes from x-axis are 2R0 from each other.
Hence (C) is also correct.
Hence only (D) is incorrect.
