The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "Ohm's law is applicable for all conducting elements." - Ohm's law is defined as \( V = I \times R \), where \( V \) is the voltage, \( I \) is the current, and \( R \) is the resistance. - However, Ohm's law is not applicable to all conducting elements. It is primarily valid for ohmic conductors (like metals) under constant temperature conditions. It does not hold true for non-ohmic conductors such as semiconductors, superconductors, and diodes. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "Ohm's law is a fundamental law." - While Ohm's law is a well-known principle in electronics, it is not a fundamental law of nature. It is more accurately described as an empirical relationship that applies under certain conditions (specifically for ohmic materials). 3. **Evaluating Both Statements**: - Since the assertion is incorrect (Ohm's law does not apply to all conducting elements), and the reason is also incorrect (Ohm's law is not a fundamental law), we conclude that both the assertion and the reason are false. 4. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct answer to the question is that both the assertion and the reason are false. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and the reason are false.
