Shortest radius is of electron and proton and alpha particle has same radius.

We know r = \frac{mv}{qB}    ...(i)

where m is mass of particle, v is velocity, q is charge and B is magnetic field.

Also Kinetic Energy K = \frac{1}{2} m.v^{2}

m.v = \sqrt[]{2Km}      ...(ii)

Putting value of (ii) in (i)

r = \frac{\sqrt[]{2Km} }{qB}

Since K and B are same as its in the question that Kinetic energy is same for all and its uniform magnetic field we can replace \frac{\sqrt{2K} }{B} by K' i.e a constant.

r = K'\frac{\sqrt{m} }{q}

Let p be notation for proton, \alpha for alpha particle and e for electron

Now we know m_{\alpha} = 4.m_{p} and q_{\alpha} = 2.q_{p}

So r_{\alpha} = r_{p}

i.e radius by alpha is equal to radius by proton

Since  m_{p} > m_{e} and  q_{p} = q_{e}

therefore r_{p} > r_{e}

radius by proton is greater than radius by electron
