Given below are two statements: one labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): The resistivity for a substance is its resistance when it is one meter long and its area of cross-section is one square meter.
Reason (R): The SI units of resistivity is ohm metre (Ωm).
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
- (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
- (A) is not correct but (R) is correct
- Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
- Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
Answer
(D) Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
