Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A)...

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A) : Mutual force of attraction between two plates of isolated capacitor is independent of presence of dielectric slab between plates. Reason (R) : Force of interaction between two charged bodies is independent of medium. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Options

  1. ABoth (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  2. BBoth (A) and (R) are true and (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A).
  3. C(A) is true but (R) is false.
  4. D(A) is false but (R) is true.

Correct answer

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

Step-by-step solution

Force between two point charges is independent of the presence of other charges.
