Assertion : An artificial satellite with a metal surface is moving above the earth in a circular orbit. A current will be induced in satellite if the plane of the orbit is inclined to the plane of the equator.
Reason : The current will be induced only when the speed of satellite is more than `8 km//sec`.

A
