Assertion (A): Magnetic flux is a vector quantity. Reason (R): Value of magnetic flux can be positive negative or zero.
Options
- ABoth A and R are true and R is a correct explanation for A
- BBoth A and R are true but R is not a correct explanation for A
- CA is true, R is false
- DA is false, R is true
Correct answer
D. A is false, R is true
Step-by-step solution
Magnetic flux is defined as the number of magnetic field lines passing through a given closed surface. It provides the measurement of the total magnetic field that passes through a given surface area. Here, the area under consideration can be of any size and under any orientation with respect to the direction of the magnetic field.
