The radius of the helical path - r=\frac{m(v\sin \theta )}{qB}

 r=\frac{1.67 \times 10^{-27}\times 2 \times 10^{6} \times \sin 30^{\circ}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 0.104}= 0.1m

Time period T=\frac{2\pi m}{qB}= \frac{2\pi \times 1.67\times10^{-27}}{1.6\times10^{-19}\times0.104}= 2\pi \times10^{-7}sec
