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.

In a mass spectrometer used for measuring the masses of ions,the ions are initially accelerated by an electric potential $V$ and then made to describe semicircular paths of radius $R$ using a magnetic field $B$. If $V$ and $B$ are kept constant,the ratio $\left(\frac{\text{charge on the ion}}{\text{mass of the ion}}\right)$ will be proportional to

When a positively charged particle enters a uniform magnetic field with uniform velocity,its trajectory can be:
$(1)$ a straight line
$(2)$ a circle
$(3)$ a helix

An electron having charge $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$ and mass $9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$ is moving with $4 \times 10^6 \ m \ s^{-1}$ speed in a magnetic field of $2 \times 10^{-1} \ T$ in a circular orbit. The force acting on the electron and the radius of the circular orbit is $.........$

An electron is projected with uniform velocity along the axis inside a current-carrying long solenoid. Then:
