Two particles $X$ and $Y$ having equal charges,are accelerated through the same potential difference. They enter a region of a uniform magnetic field and describe a circular path of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. The ratio of the mass of $X$ to that of $Y$ is

  • A
    $\frac{r_1}{r_2}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{r_1}{r_2}}$
  • C
    $\left[\frac{r_2}{r_1}\right]^2$
  • D
    $\left[\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right]^2$
