12th Class Physics Magnetism Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Magnetism and Matter

  • 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]: Earth's magnetic field does not affect the working of a moving coil glavanometer.
    Reason (R): The Earth's magnetic field as quite weak as compared to magnetic field produces in the moving coil galvanometer.

    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) The field magnet used in a moving coil galvanometer is very strong. The Earth's magnetic field is quite weak as compared to the magnetic field produced by the field magnet. Practically the coil rotates under the effect of the strong magnetic field due to the field magnet and the weak magnetic field due to the Earth does not affect the working of the moving coil galvanometer.
