Assertion: The probability of an electric bulb fusing is higher at the time of switching `ON` and `OFF`.
Reason: Inductive effects produce a surge at the time of switch `OFF` and switch `ON`.

A

If both the assertion and reason are true and reason is a true explantion of the assertion.

B

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

C

If the assertion is true but reason false

D

If both the assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The possibility of an electric bulb fussing is higher at the time of switching `ON` and `OFF` because inductive effects produce a surge at the time of switch `OFF` and `ON`,
