Knowledge Check

  • The conservation of electric charge implies that

    A
    charge cannot be created.
    B
    charge cannot be destroyed.
    C
    the number of charged particles in the universe is constant.
    D
    simultaneous creation of equal and opposite charges is permissible.

  • Assertion : When bodies are charged through friction, there is a transfer of electric charge from one body to another, but no creation or destruction of charge. Reason : This follows from conservation of electric charges.

    A
    If both assertion and reason are true 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 both assertion and reason are false.
