Question
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.
  1. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
  2. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
  3. A is true, but R is false.
  4. A is false, and R is also false.
Assertion (A): The surface of a conductor is an equipotential surface.
Reason (R): Conductor allows the flow of charge.
✓

Answer

  1. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation:
lf two points on a conductor were at different potentials, charge would flow from higher potential to lower potentials, till their potentials become equal. A surface on which the potential has the same value everywhere is called an equipotential surface.
