| ASSERTION: In electric circuits, wires carrying currents in opposite directions are often twisted together. |
| REASON: If the wires are not twisted together, the combination of the wires forms a current loop the magnetic field generated by the loop might affect adjacent circuit or components. |
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: A
Solution :
If the wires are twisted together, they can be modeled as a single wire carrying current in the opposite direction. In this model, no magnetic field is introduced in the wire which does not affect adjacent circuits.
