    A particle of mass $m$ and charge $\mathrm{q}$, moving with velocity $\mathrm{V}$ enters Region $II$ normal to the boundary as shown in the figure. Region $II$ has a uniform magnetic field B perpendicular to the plane of the paper. The length of the Region $II$ is $\ell$. Choose the correct choice$(s)$.

    Figure: $Image$

    $(A)$ The particle enters Region $III$ only if its velocity $V>\frac{q / B}{m}$

    $(B)$ The particle enters Region $III$ only if its velocity $\mathrm{V}<\frac{\mathrm{q} / \mathrm{B}}{\mathrm{m}}$

    $(C)$ Path length of the particle in Region $II$ is maximum when velocity $V=\frac{q / B}{m}$

    $(D)$ Time spent in Region $II$ is same for any velocity $V$ as long as the particle returns to Region $I$
