Assertion $(A)$: When a proton and a neutron enter into a transverse magnetic field with equal speeds,they trace circular paths of equal radii.
Reason $(R)$: In a transverse magnetic field,the period of revolution of a charged particle in a circular path is directly proportional to the mass of the particle.

    Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are correct and $(R)$ is the correct explanation of $(A)$.
  • B
    Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are correct but $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of $(A)$.
  • C
    $(A)$ is correct but $(R)$ is not correct.
  • D
    $(A)$ is not correct but $(R)$ is correct.
