Assertion : In the given circuit if lamp `B` or `C` fuses then light emitted by lamp `A` decrease.
Reason : Voltage on `A` decreases.

A

If both assertion and reason are ture and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

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

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) When lamp `B` or `C` gets fused equivalent resistance of `B` and `C` increases. In series voltage distributes in the ratio of resistance, so voltage appears across `B` increases or in other words voltage across A decreases.
