The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion The assertion states that "In parallel, current distributes in inverse ratio of inductance." - When two or more inductors are connected in parallel, the voltage across each inductor is the same. According to the formula for inductors, the voltage \( V \) across an inductor is given by: \[ V = L \frac{di}{dt} \] - For two inductors \( L_1 \) and \( L_2 \) connected in parallel, we can write: \[ V = L_1 \frac{di_1}{dt} = L_2 \frac{di_2}{dt} \] - Since the voltages are equal, we can equate the two expressions: \[ L_1 \frac{di_1}{dt} = L_2 \frac{di_2}{dt} \] - Rearranging gives us: \[ \frac{L_1}{L_2} = \frac{di_2}{di_1} \] - This shows that the current through each inductor is inversely proportional to its inductance. Therefore, the assertion is **true**. ### Step 2: Analyze the Reason The reason states that "In electrical circuits, an inductor can be treated as a resistor." - This statement is **false**. An inductor and a resistor have fundamentally different properties. - An inductor stores energy in the form of a magnetic field when current flows through it, while a resistor dissipates energy as heat. - Additionally, an inductor opposes changes in current due to its inductance, which is not a property of resistors. Therefore, the reason is **false**. ### Conclusion - The assertion is true, while the reason is false. Thus, the correct answer is that the assertion is true and the reason is false. ### Final Answer Assertion is true; Reason is false. ---
