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): Charging is due to transfer of electrons.
Reason (R): Mass of a body decreases slightly when it is negatively charged.

Answer

  1. A is true but R is false.
Explanation:

A body becomes negatively charged only when some electrons are transferred to the body i.e. the body gains some electrons. Hence its mass increases slightly. Mass of a body decreases only when body gives some electrons to some other body.
