An electron and a proton travelling with the same velocity are injected into a region of uniform magnetic field at 90° to the magnetic field direction. The initial magnetic forces on them are O equal in magnitude and direction O in opposite directions and differing in magnitude by the ratio of their masses. O equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. O equal in magnitude and perpendicular to each other.
