Assertion : Magnetic field can not change kinetic energy of a moving charge.
Reason : Magnetic field can not change velocity vector.
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
Magnetic force on moving charge is always perpendicular to its velocity.
Also, work done by magnetic force on a moving charge is zero.
