| ASSERTION: The mass of proton is 1837 times more than the mass of electron |
| REASON: An electron and proton enters a magnetic field with equal velocities, then, the force experienced by proton will be more than electron. |
A) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C) If assertion is true but reason is false.
D) If both assertion and reason are false.
E) If assertion is false but reason is true.
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
The force experienced by a charge particle in a magnetic field is given by,\[\overrightarrow{F}=q\left( \overrightarrow{v}\times \overrightarrow{B} \right)\] which is independent of mass. As q, v and B are same for both the electron and proton, hence both will experience same force.
