Assertion : All electric devices shown in the circuit are ideal. The reading of each of ammeter $(a)$ and voltmeter $(V)$ is zero.

Reason : An ideal voltmeter draws almost no current due to very large resistance, and hence $(V)$ and $(a)$ will read zero.

  • A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
  • B
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
  • C
    If Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • D
    If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
