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

  • question_answer
    Directions (Q. Nos. 1-11): In the following questions, A statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as.
    Assertion (A): Magnetic field interacts with a moving charge only.
    Reason (R): Moving charge produces a magnetic field.

    A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

    B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

    C) A is true but R is false

    D) A is false and R is true

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Option [a] is correct. Explanation: Current carrying wire creates magnetic field. This magnetic field has no effect on a stationary charge. But when the charge also moves, it creates a current. This current produces a magnetic field. Two fields interact and the charge is deflected. So, the assertion is true. Moving charge creates a current which produces a magnetic field. So, the reason is also true. Reason is the correct explanation of A.
