A beam of electrons is moving with constant velocity in a region having electric and magnetic fields of strength $20\;V{m^{ - 1}}$ and $0.5 T$ at right angles to the direction of motion of the electrons. What is the velocity of the electrons............ $m{s^{ - 1}}$

Assertion : A proton and an alpha particle having the same kinetic energy are moving in circular paths in a uniform magnetic field. The radii of their circular paths will be equal.

Reason : Any two charged particles having equal kinetic energies and entering a region of uniform magnetic field $\overrightarrow B $ in a direction perpendicular to $\overrightarrow B $, will describe circular trajectories of equal radii.
