An electron falls through a small distance in a uniform electric field of magnitude $2 \times 10^4 \ N C^{-1}$. The direction of the field is reversed keeping the magnitude unchanged and a proton falls through the same distance. The time of fall will be

  • A
    Same in both cases
  • B
    More in the case of an electron
  • C
    More in the case of proton
  • D
    Independent of charge
