MCQ
For question, statements are given-one labelled Assertion $(A)$ and the other labelled Reason $(R)$. Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes $(a) (b) (c)$ and $(d)$ as given below.
Assertion $(A)$: Two protons can attract each other.
Reason $(R)$: The distance between the protons within the nucleus is about $10{-15}^m$
  • Both $A$ and $R$ are true, and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.
  • B
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true, but $R$ is $\text{NOT}$ the correct explanation of $A$.
  • C
    $A$ is true, but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false and $R$ is also false.

Answer

Correct option: A.
Both $A$ and $R$ are true, and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.
Due to electrostatic forces between two protons $($like charges$)$ there is a force of repulsion.
However, when the distance between them is $~ 10-15m$ they come under the influence of the short range, strong nuclear forces. $($The range of the nuclear forces is $~ 10- {15}m)$. These forces are attractive forces and charges independent.
The net force on the protons is attractive, as nuclear forces are much stronger than electrostatic forces. The protons attract each other.

For two statements are given$-$one labelled Assertion $(A)$ and the other labelled Reason $(R).$ Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes $(a), (b), (c)$ and $(d)$ as given below.
Assertion: Two electric bulbs of $50$ and $100$ watt are given. When connected in series $50$ watt bulb glows more but when connected in parallel $100$ watt bulb glows more.
Reason: In series combination, power is directly proportional to the resistance of circuit. But in parallel combination, power is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit.
