| Directions: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as: |
| Assertion (A): Electric field outside the conducting wire which carries a constant current is zero. |
| Reason (R): Net charge on conducting wire is zero. |
A) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
B) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
C) Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false
D) Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R) is also false
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
(a) When current flows through a conductor, it always remains uncharged, hence no electric field is produced outside it.
