Question
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): When the observation point lies along the length of the current element, magnetic field is zero.
Reason (R): Magnetic field close to current element is zero.

Answer

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

Since $\text{dB}\propto\sin\theta$ where $\theta$ is angle between the direction of the flow of current and the line joining the elementary portion to the observation point which is zero in this case, so the magnetic field is also zero (because sin8 is equal to 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.
