NEETPhysicsMagnetic Effects of Current
Assertion: The magnetic field lines are continuous and form closed loops. Reason: Magnetic monopole does not exist. The correct option among the following is
Options
- AAssertion is true, Reason is true and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
- BAssertion is true, Reason is true but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
- CAssertion is true but Reason is false
- DAssertion is false but Reason is true
Correct answer
A. Assertion is true, Reason is true and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Step-by-step solution
If magnetic monopoles exist, magnetic field lines will start from positive monopole and terminate on negative monopole. Since, magnetic monopole does not exist, magnetic filed lines form closed continuous loops.
