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): The earth's magnetic field is due to iron present in its core.
Reason (R): At a low temperature magnet losses its magnetic property or magnetism.

Answer

  1. A is false and R is also false.

Explanation:

The temperature inside the earth is so high that it is impossible for iron core to behave as a magnet and act as a source of magnetic field. The magnetic field of earth is considered to be due to circulating electric current in the iron (in molten state) and other conducting materials inside the earth.
