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

  • question_answer
    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): The potential difference between the two conductors of a capacitor is small.
    Reason (R): A capacitor is so configured that it confines the electric field lines within a small region of space.

    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: A

    Solution :

    (a) Even though field may have considerable strength, the potential difference between the two conductors of a capacitor is small because the field lines are confined within a small region of space.
