A monochromatic light is incident on a metallic plate having work function . An electron, emitted normally to the plate from a point A with maximum kinetic energy, enters a constant magnetic field, perpendicular to the initial velocity of electron. The electron passes through a curve and hits back the plate at a point B . The distance between A and B is : (Given : The magnitude of charge of an electron is e and mass
