Assertion (A): The capacity of a conductor, under give circumstances, remains constant irrespective of the chang present on it. Reason (R): Capacity depends on size and shape (d ) conductor and also on the surrounding medium.

Options

  1. AIf both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and the Reason ( (R )) is a correct explanation of Assertion (A)
  2. BIf both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True but Reason (( R ) ) is not a correct explanation of the Assertio
  3. CIf Assertion (A) is True but the Reason (R) is False.
  4. DAssertion (A) is False but the Reason (R) is True.

Correct answer

A. If both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and the Reason ( (R )) is a correct explanation of Assertion (A)

Step-by-step solution

Charge present on a conductor determines its potential. Capacity is a function of size and shape of the conductor and of the surrounding medium. Capacitance in case of parallel plate capacitor, (C= K A d ) where (K ) is dielectric constant of medium, (A ) is area of plates and (d ) is distance between them.
