Assertion: The tyres of aircraft's are slightly conducting.
Reason: If a conductor is connected to a ground, the extra charge induced on conductor will flow to ground.

A

Both the Assertion and the Reason are correct and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

The Assertion and the Reason are correct but the Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

Assertion is true but the Reason is false.

D

Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Due to rubbing of body of vehicle with air or rubbing of types on the road,friction makes them charged. Conduction of these charges through the vehicles body may produce heat and subsequently the fuel tank may catch fire.Conducting typeskeep returning charges to the ground and hence, fire hazards are avoided.
