Two identical charged particles are projected into a uniform electric field. Particle A is projected at an angle with the field, while particle B is projected perpendicular to the field. If both have the same initial kinetic energy, which particle will have a greater range along the direction of the field?
Particle A
Particle B
Both particles will have the same range
The range depends on the magnitude of the electric field
