1. Assertion (A): The poles of magnet cannot be separated by breaking into two pieces. Reason (R): The magnetic moment will be reduced to half when a magnet is broken into two equal pieces.  
2. Assertion (A): An electron and a proton enter a uniform magnetic field at right angles to the field with equal velocities, then, deviation of both from the original path will be the same. Reason (R): In the situation described above, electron and proton will experience magnetic forces of different magnitude.
