Assertion: The possibility of an electric bulb fusing is higher at the time of switching ON and OFF.
Reason: Inductive effects produce a surge at the time of switch ON and OFF.

A

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

B

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

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The possibility of an electric bulb fusing is higher at the time of switching ON and switching OFF because inductive effect produces a surge at the time of switching ON and OFF.
