Assertion : In our houses when we start ...

Assertion : In our houses when we start switching on different light buttons, main current goes on increasing.
Reason : Different connections in houses are in parallel. When we start switching on different light buttons, then net resistance of the circuit decreases. Therefore, main current increases.

A

If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is not correct explanation of Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but Reason is true.
