Question: Five equal - mass particles ( A E ) enter a region of uniform magnetic field directed into the page. They follow the trajectories illustrated

Five equal-mass particles (AE) enter a region of uniform magnetic field directed into the page. They follow the trajectories illustrated in (Figure 1).
Figure1 of 1
The figure shows five particles labeled from A to E moving in uniform magnetic field directed into the page. Particle A moves clockwise along a circular trajectory. Particle B travels counterclockwise one fourth of a circle with a radius slightly smaller than that of particle A trajectory. Particles C and E travel counterclockwise half of a circle each of the radius equal to one third of the radius of particle A trajectory. Particle D travels straight upward. Rank the particles on the basis of their speed.
Rank from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.
