C) If assertion is true but reason is false.
D) If the assertion and reason both are false.
E) If assertion is false but reason is true.
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
According to Lenz?s law, induced emf are in a direction such as to attempt to maintain the original magnetic flux when a change occurs. When the switch is opened, the sudden drop in the magnetic field in the circuit induces an emf in a direction that attempts to keep the original current flowing. This can cause a spark as the current bridges the air gap between the poles of the switch. (The spark is more likely in circuits with large inductance).
