Question

Assertion  :   Circuit containing capacitors should be handled cautiously even when there is no current.

Reason      : The capacitors are very delicate and so quickly break down.

(a) If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

(b) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

(c) If assertion is true but reason is false.

(d) If the assertion and reason both are false.

Answer

(c) If assertion is true but reason is false.
