    Directions: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion [A] is followed by a statement of Reason (R).
    Mark the correct choice as:
    Assertion [A]: A capacitor of suitable capacitance can be used in an AC circuit in place of the choke coil
    Reason (R): A capacitor blocks DC and allows AC only.

    A) Both Assertion [A] and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion [A]        

    B) Both Assertion [A] and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion [A]

    C) Assertion [A] is true but Reason (R) is false

    D) Assertion [A] is false and Reason (R) is also false

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    (b) We can use a capacitor of suitable capacitance as a choke coil, because average power consumed per cycle in an ideal capacitor is zero. Therefore, like a choke coil, a condenser can reduce AC without power dissipation.
