Solution

The correct option is A Less than e/m value for electron
Charge on proton =1.6×1019 C
Mass of proton =1.67×1027 kg
Value of em=Magnitude of charge on protonMass of proton

=1.6×1019 C1.67×1027 kg

=0.958×108 C/kg
But e/m value of electron is 1.75×1011 C/kg which is greater than that of proton.
