| ASSERTION: As force is a vector quantity, hence electric field intensity is also a vector quantity. |
| REASON: The unit of electric field intensity is Newton per coulomb. |
A) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
B) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
C) If assertion is true but reason is false.
D) If both assertion and reason are false.
E) If assertion is false but reason is true.
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
The electric field intensity is equal to force experienced by unit positive test charge \[{{q}_{0}}\]placed at that point i.e. \[\overrightarrow{E}=\frac{\overrightarrow{F}}{90}\]thus \[\overrightarrow{E}\]is also a vector quantity. As, \[E=\frac{F}{q}=\frac{Newton}{Coulomb}\]
