Directions: These questions consist of two statements, each printed as Assertion and Reason. While answering these questions, you are required to choose any one of the following four responses.

(a) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.

(b) Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

(c) Assertion is correct, Reason is incorrect

(d) Assertion is incorrect and Reason is correct.

(e) Both assertion and reason are incorrect.

 

Question 15:

Assertion (A): A parallel plates charged capacitor is disconnected from a battery. Now if its plates are separated farther, the potential fall.

Reason (R): Energy stored in a capacity is equal to the work done in charging it.

 

Question 16:

Assertion: A uniformly charged ring behaves like a large charge if the point of observation is far away from the ring.

Reason: Electrostatic potential energy is maximum when the dipole is aligned parallel to the direction of Electric field.

 

Question 17:

Assertion: No work is done in moving a test charge between two points on an equilibrium surface.

Reason: Electric field acts normally to the equipotential surface.

 

Question 18:

Assertion: A lightning conductor at the top of high buildings are sharp pointed ends.

Reason: the surface charge density at sharp points is very high resulting in setting up of electric wind.

 

Question 19:

Assertion: An ebonite rod held in hand can be charged by rubbing with wool but copper rod cannot be charged like this.

Reason: Ebonite is good conductor of electricity, the charges so produced stay on ebonite rod.

 

Question 20:

Assertion: The tyres of aircrafts are slightly conducting.

Reason: If a conductor is connected to the ground, the extra charge induced on conductor will flow to the ground.
