Question

Assertion : A bulb connected in series with a solenoid is connected to ac source. If a soft iron core is introduced in the solenoid, the bulb will glow brighter.
Reason : On introducing soft iron core in the solenoid, the inductance increases.

✓

Answer

(e) On introducing soft iron core, the bulb will glow dimmer. This is because on introducing soft iron core in the solenoid, its inductance $L$ increases, the inductive reactance, $X_L=\omega L$ increases and hence the current through the bulb decreases.
