The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we need to analyze the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that a low voltage supply from which high currents are to be withdrawn must have very low internal resistance. - According to Ohm's Law, the current (I) flowing through a circuit is given by the formula: \[ I = \frac{V}{R} \] where \( V \) is the voltage and \( R \) is the resistance. 2. **Analyzing the Condition**: - In this case, since the voltage \( V \) is low, to achieve a high current \( I \), the resistance \( R \) must be low. - Therefore, if we want to draw high currents from a low voltage supply, we indeed require a very low internal resistance. 3. **Understanding Reason (R)**: - The reason states that the maximum current drawn from a source is inversely proportional to the internal resistance. - This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ I \propto \frac{1}{R} \] - This means that as the internal resistance \( R \) decreases, the current \( I \) increases, which supports the assertion. 4. **Conclusion**: - Both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) are correct. - Furthermore, the reason correctly explains the assertion. Therefore, the answer to the question is that both A and R are true, and R provides a correct explanation for A. ### Final Answer: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct, and R explains A. ---
