A proton and an electron both moving with the same velocity v enter into a region of magnetic field directed perpendicular to the velocity of the particles. They will now move in circular orbits such that
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Time period of revolution, 
Since 
and 
are the same for both proton and electron
As mass of proton is greater than mass of an electron, therefore
