In a mass spectrometer used for measuring the masses of ions,the ions are initially accelerated by an electric potential $V$ and then made to describe semicircular paths of radius $R$ using a magnetic field $B$. If $V$ and $B$ are kept constant,the ratio $\left( \frac{\text{charge on the ion}}{\text{mass of the ion}} \right)$ will be proportional to

  • A
    $\frac{1}{R}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{R^2}$
  • C
    $R^2$
  • D
    $R$
