Assertion : The current density $\vec J$ at any point in ohmic resistor is in direction of electric field $\vec E$ at that point.

Reason : A point charge when released from rest in a region having only electrostatic field always moves along electric lines of force.

  • A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
  • B
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
  • C
    If Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • D
    If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
