The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Cyclotron is not suitable for accelerating electrons. Due to the small mass, the speed of electrons increases rapidly. Likewise, due to quick relativistic variation in their mass, the electrons get out of step with the oscillating electric field.
