- Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
- Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
- A is true but R is false.
- A is false and R is also false.
Reason (R): A charged particle produces a magnetic field.
Explanation:
In an atom, electrons revolve around the nucleus and as such the circular orbits of electrons may be considered as the small current loops. In addition to orbital motion, an electron has got spin motion also. So the total magnetic moment of electron is the vector sum of its magnetic moments due to orbital and spin motion.

Assertion (A): The positively charged nucleus of an atom has a radius of almost 10-15m.
Reason (R): In
$\alpha$-particle scattering experiment, the distance of closest approach for $\alpha$-particles is 10-15m.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.
