Question
Assertion (A): A bulb connected in series with a solenoid is connected to ac source. If a soft iron core is introduced in the solenoid, the bulb will glow brighter.
Reason (R): On introducing soft iron core in the solenoid, the inductance increases.

Answer

(d) A is false but R is true.
Explanation: A is true but R is false.
On introducing soft iron core, the bulb will glow dimmer. This is because on introducing soft iron core in the solenoid, its inductance L increases, the inductive reactance, $X _{ L }=\omega L$ increases and hence the current through the bulb decreases.

Assertion (A): Between any two given energy levels, the number of absorption transitions is always less than the number of emission transitions.

Reason (R): Absorption transitions start from the lowest energy level only and may end at any higher energy level. But emission transitions may start from any higher energy level and end at any energy level below it.
