12th Class Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Electric Potential and Capacitance

  • question_answer
    ASSERTION: The tyres of aircrafts are slightly conducting.
    REASON: If a conductor is connected to ground, the extra charge induced on conductor will flow to ground.

    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 :

    During takeoff and landing, the friction between tyres and the run way may cause electrification of tyres. Due to conducting nature of tyre, the charge so collected is conducted to a ground and electrical sparking is avoided.
