$A$ proton is moving undeflected in a region of crossed electric and magnetic fields at a constant speed of $2 \times 10^5 \text{ ms}^{-1}$. When the electric field is switched off,the proton moves along a circular path of radius $2 \text{ cm}$. The magnitude of the electric field is $x \times 10^4 \text{ N/C}$. The value of $x$ is . . . . . . . (Take the mass of the proton $= 1.6 \times 10^{-27} \text{ kg}$ and charge $e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}$)

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: If oxygen ion $(O^{-2})$ and hydrogen ion $(H^{+})$ enter normal to the magnetic field with equal momentum,then the path of $O^{-2}$ ion has a smaller curvature than that of $H^{+}$.
Reason $R$: $A$ proton with same linear momentum as an electron will form a path of smaller radius of curvature on entering a uniform magnetic field perpendicularly.
In the light of the above statement,choose the correct answer from the options given below.
