Electromagnetism - Cyclotron

A nonrelativistic particle with a charge twice that of an electron moves through a uniform magnetic field. The field has a strength of π/4 tesla and is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. What is the particle’s mass if it has a cyclotron frequency of 1,600 hertz?

A. 2.5 × 10-23 kg
B. 1.2 × 10-22 kg
C. 3.3 × 10-22 kg
D. 5.0 × 10-21 kg
E. 7.5 × 10-21 kg
