Directions: These questions consist of two statements, each printed as

Assertion & reason. While answeringthese questions,
you are required to choose any one of the following four responses.

a) if both Assertion & Reason are correct and

the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion.

electron.
Reason:The mass of proton is 1837 times more than that of electron.

7.Assertion: An election & a proton, with Same momenta, enter in a

magnetic field in a direction at right angles to the lines of the force. The
radius of the paths followed by them will be same.
