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 (A): A point charge is lying at the centre of a cube of each side. The electric flux emanating from each surface of the cube is $\frac{1^\text{th}}{6}$ of total flux.
Reason (R): According to Gauss theorem, total electric flux through a closed surface enclosing a charge is equal to $\frac{1}{\in_0}$ times the magnitude of the charge enclosed.
Assertion (A): In a hydrogen atom there is only one electron but its emission spectrum shows many lines.
Reason(R): In a given sample of hydrogen there are many atoms each containing one electron; hence many electrons in different atoms may be in different orbits so many transitions from higher to lower orbits are possible.
