Assertion : We cannot make a magnet with...

Assertion : We cannot make a magnet with only one pole.
Reason : Magnetic monopoles do not exist.

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 explation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
We cannot make a magnet with one pole because poles always exist in pairs. We cannot separate north and south poles rather if cut a magnet into two halves, each half will become a new magnet with its north and south pole .
