The figure below shows a charged particle that enters at point O and exits at point P. In the given system, the velocity of the particle is perpendicular to the uniform magnetic field B. The mass of the particle is 1.50 × 10^−26[kg], the uniform magnetic field in the system is  +50.0[T]k, the speed of the particle is 1.20 × 10^5[m/s], and the time of flight of the particle from point O to point P is 7.50 × 10^−8[s].  What is the charge (magnitude and sign) of the particle?  What is the radius of the curved path that is traced by the particle?
