$A$ mixed beam of $He^+$ and $O^{2+}$ ions (mass of $He^+ = 4 \ amu$ and that of $O^{2+} = 16 \ amu$) passes through a region of a constant perpendicular magnetic field. If the kinetic energy of all the ions is the same,then:

  • A
    $He^+$ ions will be deflected more than those of $O^{2+}$
  • B
    $He^+$ ions will be deflected less than those of $O^{2+}$
  • C
    All the ions will be deflected equally
  • D
    No ions will be deflected

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: If oxygen ion $(O^{-2})$ and hydrogen ion $(H^{+})$ enter normal to the magnetic field with equal momentum,then the path of $O^{-2}$ ion has a smaller curvature than that of $H^{+}$.
Reason $R$: $A$ proton with same linear momentum as an electron will form a path of smaller radius of curvature on entering a uniform magnetic field perpendicularly.
In the light of the above statement,choose the correct answer from the options given below.
