Two ions have equal masses but one is singly ionized and the second is doubly ionized. They are projected from the same place in a uniform transverse magnetic field with the same velocity. Then:
$(a)$ Both ions will move along circles of equal radii.
$(b)$ The radius of the circle described by the singly ionized charge is double the radius of the circle described by the doubly ionized charge.
$(c)$ Both circles do not touch each other.
$(d)$ Both circles touch each other.

$A$ particle having a mass of $10^{-2} \, kg$ carries a charge of $5 \times 10^{-8} \, C$. The particle is given an initial horizontal velocity of $10^5 \, m/s$ in the presence of an electric field $\vec{E}$ and a magnetic field $\vec{B}$. To keep the particle moving in a horizontal direction,it is necessary that:
$(1)$ $\vec{B}$ should be perpendicular to the direction of velocity and $\vec{E}$ should be along the direction of velocity.
$(2)$ Both $\vec{B}$ and $\vec{E}$ should be along the direction of velocity.
$(3)$ Both $\vec{B}$ and $\vec{E}$ are mutually perpendicular and perpendicular to the direction of velocity.
$(4)$ $\vec{B}$ should be along the direction of velocity and $\vec{E}$ should be perpendicular to the direction of velocity.
