Gyro-frequency and gyro-radius- any takers?

Gyro frequency

Also known as the cyclotron frequency or Larmor frequency, the frequency of rotation of a charged particle or ion as it spirals a magnetic field.

The trajectory of a charged particle acted on solely by a magnetic force is a helix with its axis parallel to the magnetic induction. In any plane perpendicular to the magnetic induction the particle describes a circular orbit with gyro-frequency qB/m, where q is charge, m is mass, and B is the magnitude of magnetic induction.

Gyro-radius
The gyroradius is also known as radius of gyration, Larmor radius or cyclotron radius. It is the radius of the circular motion of a charged particle in the presence of a uniform magnetic field.

r = mv/qB

where is the gyro-radius, m is the mass of the charged particle, v is the velocity component perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field, q is the charge of the particle, and B is the constant magnetic field.

God is surprised at mankind!

God is surprised at mankind because of the following reasons
Reason 1: Man gets bored in childhood, he wishes to grow up and then longs to be a child.
Reason 2: He loses his health to make money and then loses his money to restore his health.
Reason 3: He thinks anxiously about future, forgetting the present. So he lives neither in future nor in present.
Reason 4: He lives as if he will never die, but die as if he has never lived.
