    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]: Two parallel conducting wires carrying currents in opposite direction, come close to each other.
    Reason (R): Parallel currents repel and anti-parallel currents attract.

    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: D

    Solution :

    [d] Since in the two parallel wires the flow of current is in opposite directions they repel each other, so they will move apart. Parallel currents attract and anti-parallel currents repel.
