You are to examine these two statements carefully and decide if the Assertion $A$ and Reason $R$ are individually true and if so, whether the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion. Select your answers to these items using codes given below.
Assertion (A): A domestic electric appliance working on a three pin, will continue working even if the top pin is removed.
Reason (R): The third pin is used only for safety purpose.
Assertion (A): A domestic electric appliance working on a three pin, will continue working even if the top pin is removed.
Reason (R): The third pin is used only for safety purpose.
- ✓Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$
- BBoth $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A$
- C$A$ is true but $R$ is false
- D$A$ is false but $R$ is true
Answer: A.
