Assertion: If there exists coulombic attracation between two bodies both of them may not be charged.
Reason: In coulombic attraction two bodies are oppositely charged.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
