Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): When bodies are charged through friction, there is a transfer of electric charge from one body to another, but no creation or destruction of charge.
Reason (R): This follows from conservation of electric charges.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
- (A) is true but (R) is false
- (A) is false but (R) is true
- Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
- Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
Answer
(C) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
