Assertion: The tyres of aircraft's are slightly conducting.
Reason: If a conductor is connected to a ground, the extra charge induced on conductor will flow to ground.

A

Both statements 1 and 2 are true and statement 2 is the correct explanation of statement 1.

B

Both statements 1 and 2 are true but statement 2 is not the correct explanation of statement 1.

C

Statement 1 is true but statement 2 is false.

D

Both statements 1 and 2 are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
