\mathrm{\frac{r_1}{r_2}=\frac{6}{5} \rightarrow(1) }

\mathrm{\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{9}{4} \rightarrow(2) }

\mathrm{\frac{q_1}{q_2}=?}
It is given that,

\mathrm{K E_1=K E_2 }

\mathrm{\frac{P_1^2}{2 m_1}=\frac{P_2^2}{2 m_2} }

\mathrm{\frac{P_1}{P_2}=\frac{3}{2} \rightarrow 3}
We know that,

\mathrm{r=\frac{m v}{q B}=\frac{p}{q B} }

\mathrm{\frac{r_1}{r_2}=\frac{p_1}{p_2} \times \frac{q_2}{q_1}}

\mathrm{\frac{q_{1}}{q_{2}}=\frac{p_{1}}{p_{2}}\times \frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}=\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{5}{6}=\frac{5}{4}}

Hence (2) is correct option.
