Question

Assertion :Net charge given to a conductor resides on its outer surface under electrostatic conditions. Reason: Electric field lines do not enter a conductor under electrostatic conditions.
  1. Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
  2. Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
  3. Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
  4. Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect

A
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
B
Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
C
Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect
D
Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion

All the charge given to a conductor comes on it surface and if there is no charge inside the conductor, the electric field inside also becomes zero.

So both assertion and reasons are correct.
