Assertion : Magnetic field lines show the direction $($at every point$)$ along which a small magnetised needle aligns $($at the point$).$
Reason : Magnetic field lines certainly represent the direction of magnetic field, but not the direction of force, this is because force is always perpendicular to magnetic field $B.$
  • A
