STATEMENT 1: The current density `vec J` at any point in ohmic resistor is in direction of electric field `vec E` at that point .
STATEMENT 2: A point charge when released from rest in a region having only electrostatic field always moves along electric lines of force.

A

If both Assertion `&` Reason are True `&` the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

If both Assertion `&` Reason are True but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

If Assertion is True but the Reason is False.

D

If both Assertion `&` Reason are False.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
From relation `vecJ=sigmavecE`, the current density `vecJ` at any point in ohmic resistor is in direction of electric field `vecE` at the point. In space having non-uniform electric field, charges released from rest may not move along ELOF.
