MCQ
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 $(A):$ If a conducting medium is placed between two charges, then electric force between them becomes zero.
Reason $(R):$ Reduction in a force due to introduced material is inversely proportional to its dielectric constant.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R $ are true, and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • B
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true, but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
  • C
    $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • $A$ is false and $R$ is also false.

Answer

Correct option: D.
$A$ is false and $R$ is also false.
The dielectric constant of any material is $\text{K}=\frac{\text{E}_0}{\text{E}}=\frac{\frac{\text{F}_0}{\text{q}}}{\frac{\text{F}}{\text{q}}}=\frac{\text{F}_0}{\text{F}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{F}=\frac{\text{F}_0}{\text{K}},$ where $F_0$ is force when conductor is not present between the charge. Fis a force after introduction of conductor between charges.
Since dielectric constant of a conducting medium is infinity therefore $F = 0.$

Assertion (A): Three equal charges are situated on a circle of radius r such that they form on equilateral triangle, then the electric field intensity at the centre is zero.
Reason (R): The force on unit positive charge at the centre, due to the three equal charges are represented by the three sides of a triangle taken in the same order. Therefore, electric field intensity at centre is zero.

Assertion: An inductance and a resistance are connected in series with an A.C. circuit. ln this circuit the current and the potential difference across the resistance lags behind potential difference across the inductance by an angle $\frac{\pi}{2}.$
Reason: In L-R circuit voltage leads the current by phase angle which depends on the value ofinductance and resistance both.
