Assertion (A): If a proton and an -particle enter a uniform magnetic field perpendicularly with the same speed, then the time period of revolution of the -particle is double than that of proton.
Reason (R): In a magnetic field, the time period of revolution of a charged particle is directly proportional to mass.
Reason (R): In a magnetic field, the time period of revolution of a charged particle is directly proportional to mass.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
Option B is correct because both the assertion and the reason are true, but the reason does not directly explain the assertion. The time period depends on mass and charge, and the alpha particle has twice the charge and four times the mass of a proton.
