An electron and a proton are in uniform electic field. The ratio of their acceleration will be

A

zero

B

unity

C

ratio of masses of proton and electron

D

ratio of masses of electron and proton

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`(a_(e))/(a_(m)) = (F_(e)// m_(e))/( F_(p) // m_(p)) = (m_(p) (eE))/( m_(e) (e E)) = (m_(p))/(m_(e))`
