AIIMS2018PhysicsElectromagnetic Induction
Assertion : Only a change in magnetic flux will maintain an induced current in the coil. Reason : The presence of large magnetic flux through a coil maintains a current in the coil if the circuit is continuous.
Options
- AIf both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
- BIf both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
- CIf assertion is true but reason is false.
- DIf both assertion and reason are false.
Correct answer
C. If assertion is true but reason is false.
Step-by-step solution
Induced current (emf) in a coil is directly proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux linked with the coil. If there is no change in the flux, there is no induced current also.
