Assertion (A) Electromagnetic force is enormously strong as compared to gravitational force. Yet gravity dominates in the large-scale phenomena (e.g. formation of galaxies).
Reason ( R ) Existence os positive and negative charges make matter mostly electrically neutral.
Which of the following is true ?

A

Both (A) and ( R ) are true and ( R ) is the correct explantion of (A)

B

Both (A) and ( R ) are true, but ( R ) is not the correct explantion of (A)

C

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

D

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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Both A and R true and R is the correct explanation of A.
" Although the electromagnetic force is far stronger than gravity, it tends to cancel itself out within large object, so over the largest distances (on the scale of planets and galaxies), gravity is the dominant force."

Answer carefully: (a) Two large conducting spheres carrying charges Q_(1) and Q_(2) are brought close to each other. Is the magnitude of electrostatic force between them exactly given by Q_(1),Q_(2)//4pi epsilon_(0)r^(2) , where r is the distance between their centres? (b) If Coulomb’s law involved 1//r^(3) dependence (instead of would Gauss’s law be still true ? (c) A small test charge is released at rest at a point in an electrostatic field configuration. Will it travel along the field line passing through that point? (d) What is the work done by the field of a nucleus in a complete circular orbit of the electron? What if the orbit is elliptical? (e) We know that electric field is discontinuous across the surface of a charged conductor. Is electric potential also discontinuous there?
