An electron of mass m_e, initially at rest, moves though a certain distance in a uniform electric field in time t₂ A proton of mass m_p, aslo, initially at rest, takes time t_2­ to move though an equal distance in this uniform electric field. Neglecting the effect of gravity, the ratio t₂ / t₁ is nearly equal to

(a) 1

(b) (m_p / m_e)^1/2

(c) (m_e / m_p)^1/2

(d) 1836
