Assertion: The specific charge of positive rays is not constant.
Reason: The mass of ions varies with speed.

A

If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.

D

If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

(AIIMS-1999)

Solution

The specific charge $\frac{e}{m}$ of positive ray is not constant because for different velocities the rest mass of particles change i.e. mass of ions varies with speed. So $\frac{e}{m}$ will differ. Hence, Reason and Assertion both are correct and Reason explains Assertion
