12th Class Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Electric Potential and Capacitance

  • question_answer
    ASSERTION: Circuit containing capacitors should be handled cautiously even when there is no current.
    REASON: The capacitor are very delicate and so quickly breakdown.

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

    B) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

    C) If assertion is true but reason is false.

    D) If both assertion and reason are false.

    E) If assertion is false but reason is true.

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    A charged capacitor, after removing the battery, does not discharge itself. If this capacitor is touched by someone, he may feel shock due to the large charge still present on the capacitor. Hence it should be handled cautiously otherwise this may cause a severe shock.
