Two charged particles, $\displaystyle P$ and $\displaystyle Q$, each having charge $\displaystyle q$ but of masses $\displaystyle \mathrm{m}_{1}$ and $\displaystyle \mathrm{m}_{2}$, are accelerated through the same potential difference V . They enter a region of magnetic field $\displaystyle \overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}(\perp \overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}})$ and describe the circular paths of radii $\displaystyle \mathrm{a}$ and $\displaystyle \mathrm{b}$ respectively. Then $\displaystyle \left(\frac{\mathrm{m}_{1}}{\mathrm{~m}_{2}}\right)$ is equal to :
