Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: The electric force changes the speed of the charged particle and hence changes its kinetic energy; whereas the magnetic force does not change the kinetic energy of the charged particle.
Statement $II$: The electric force accelerates the positively charged particle perpendicular to the direction of the electric field. The magnetic force accelerates the moving charged particle along the direction of the magnetic field.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

The magnetic field vector of an electromagnetic wave is given by $\vec{B} = B_0 \frac{\hat{i} + \hat{j}}{\sqrt{2}} \cos(kz - \omega t)$,where $\hat{i}$ and $\hat{j}$ represent unit vectors along the $x$ and $y$-axes,respectively. At $t = 0 \, s$,two electric charges $q_1 = 4\pi \, C$ and $q_2 = 2\pi \, C$ are located at $(0, 0, \pi/k)$ and $(0, 0, 3\pi/k)$,respectively. Both charges have the same velocity $\vec{v} = 0.5c\hat{i}$,where $c$ is the speed of light. The ratio of the magnetic force acting on charge $q_1$ to that on $q_2$ is:

An $\alpha$-particle and a proton moving with the same kinetic energy enter a region of uniform magnetic field at right angles to the field. The ratio of the radii of the paths of $\alpha$-particle to that of the proton is

Give an example of a situation in which an applied force does not result in a change in kinetic energy.
