Question
For 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: Step-down transformer increases the current.
Reason: Transformer obeys the law of conservation of energy.

Answer

  1. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
Explanation:
If there is no loss of energy in transformer, then instantaneous output power is equal to instantaneous input power. From this we get $\frac{\text{e}_\text{s}}{\text{e}_\text{p}}=\frac{\text{I}_\text{p}}{\text{I}_\text{s}}.$
So in step up transformer voltage increases by decreasing the current. Similarly, step-down transformer decreases the voltage by increasing current. Therefore transformer simply transforms the voltage and current, obeying the law of conservation of energy.

Assertion: Insulator do not allow flow of current through them.
Reason: Insulator have no free charge carrier.
Assertion: A parallel plate capacitor is connected across battery through a key. A dielectric slab of dielectric constant K is introduced between the plates. The energy which is stored becomes K times.
Reason(R): The surface density of charge on the plate remains constant or unchanged.
Assertion (A): Light from two coherent sources is reaching the screen. If the path difference at a point on the screen for yellow light is $\frac{3 \lambda}{2}$, then the fringe at that point will be coloured.
