  • question_answer
    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): Coulomb force and gravitational force follow the same inverse-square law.
    Reason (R): Both laws are same in all aspects.

    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: C

    Solution :

    (c) Coulomb force and gravitational force follow the same inverse-square law. But gravitational force has only one sign which is always attractive, while coulomb force can be of both signs which are attractive and repulsive.
