The correct answer is: $\frac{2 \pi n m}{q}, \frac{q v B r}{2}$
Cyclotron frequency $\mathrm{n}=\frac{\mathrm{qB}}{2 \pi \mathrm{m}}$
$\therefore \mathrm{B}=\frac{2 \pi \mathrm{nm}}{\mathrm{q}}$
Also, $\frac{\mathrm{mv}^{2}}{\mathrm{r}}=\mathrm{q} \mathrm{vB} \quad \therefore \mathrm{mv}^{2}=\mathrm{q} \mathrm{vB} \mathrm{r}$ K.E. $=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}^{2}=\frac{\mathrm{qvBr}}{2}$
$\mathrm{K} . \mathrm{E} .=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}^{2}=\frac{\mathrm{qvBr}}{2}$
