Assertion: Two positively and charged conductors are put in contact, the common potential will be less than the initial value of one of the conductors. Reason: Both conductors will attract each other.

Two insulated spherical conductors of capacities 1muF and 2muF are charged to 100 V and 200 V respectively. The conductors are then brought in contact. The charges on the sphere after contact are

Assertion: When two conducting objects are brought into contact then charge flow occurs between the two, if their potentials are different. Reason: Two conducting objects when brought in contact redistribute total charge to acquire the same potential.
