In the Thomson experiment for finding $e/m$ for electrons,the beam of electrons is replaced by a beam of muons (particles with the same charge as electrons but with a mass $208$ times that of electrons). The condition for no deflection is satisfied if:

  • A
    $B$ is increased $208$ times
  • B
    $E$ is increased $208$ times
  • C
    $B$ is increased $14.4$ times
  • D
    None of these

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A)$: In a uniform magnetic field,speed and energy remain the same for a moving charged particle.
Reason $(R)$: $A$ moving charged particle experiences a magnetic force perpendicular to its direction of motion.

$A$ proton, a deuteron, and an $\alpha$-particle are moving with the same momentum in a uniform magnetic field. The ratio of magnetic forces acting on them is.......... and their speeds are in the ratio of..........

An electron enters the space between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown. The charge density on the plate is $\sigma$. Electric intensity in the space between the plates is $E$. $A$ uniform magnetic field $B$ also exists in that space perpendicular to the direction of $E$. The electron moves perpendicular to both $\vec{E}$ and $\vec{B}$ without any change in direction. The time taken by the electron to travel a distance $\ell$ in the space is
