Assetrion: Electric lines of force cross each other.
Reason: Electric field at a point superimpose to give one resultant electric field.

A

If both assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d
If electric lines of force cross each other, then the electric field at the point of intersection will have two direction simultaneously which is not possible physically.
