Asserions: Two points charges +Q and -Q ...

Asserions: Two points charges `+Q` and `-Q` are fixed at point `A(+a,0,0)`and point `B(-a,0,0)` respectively.Then the magnitude of electric flux due to electric field of either point charge through infinite y-zplane (that is `x=0` plane) is less than magnitude of net electric flux due to electric field of both charges through that plane (`x=0` plane)
Reason :the magnitude of the net electric flux through a surface due to a system of point charges is equal to sum of magnitude of electric flux through that surface due to each of the point charge of the system.

A

Both `(A)` and `(R )` are true and `'R'` is the correct explanation of `A`.

B

Both `A` and `R` are true and `R` is not the correct explanation of `A`

C

`(A)` is true but `(R )` is false

D

`(A)` is false but `(R )` is true
