Assertion:The mass of beta-particles when they are emitted is higher than the mass of electrons obtained by other means. Reason:beta-particle and electron , both are similar particles.

Answer»

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion .
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is notthe correct explanation of assertion .
If assertion is true but reason is false .
If both assertion and reason are false

Solution :`BETA`-PARTICLES are EMITTED with very high velocity (upto 0.99 c). So, according to Einstein's theory of relatively , the mass of a `beta`-particle is much higher compared to its rest mass `(m_0)`. The velocity of electrons OBTAINED by other means is very small compared to c (velocity of light). So its mass remains NEARLY `m_0`.
