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 $\ce{(a), (b), (c)}$ and $(d)$ as given below :
Assertion : A voltmeter and ammeter can be used together to measure resistance, but not power.
Reason : Power is proportional to voltage and current.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true, and $R$ is correct explanation of the assertion.
  • B
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true, but $R$ is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
  • C
    $A$ is true, but $R$ is false.
  • $A$ is false, but $R$ is true.

Answer

Correct option: D.
$A$ is false, but $R$ is true.
As $\text{R}=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{I}}$ and $P = VI,$ by measuring $V$ and $I$ simultaneously in circuit we can measure both resistance and power, using the given relation.
