• 20 Assertion and Reason

Type questions

• Solution with explanation

• Directions. In the following questions, statement

of assertion is followed by a statement of

reason. While answering a question, you are

required to choose the correct one out of the

given four responses and mark it as :-

• A, if both assertion and reason are true and

reason is the correct explanation of the

assertion.

• B, if both assertion and reason are true but

reason is not correct explanation of the

assertion.

• C, if assertion is true, but reason is false.

• D, if both assertion and reason are false.

1) Assertion : If the direction of velocity of

charge is parallel to the applied magnetic

field then the force experienced by moving

charge will be maximum.

Reason : The force on moving charge is

independent of the direction of applied

magnetic field.

1) A. 2) B

3) C. 4) D

2) Assertion : Magnetic field lines form

closed loop.

Reason : Moving charge or current

produce a magnetic field .

1. A

2. B

3. C

4. D

3) Assertion: If an electron and proton

enter perpendicular to a magnetic field

with equal momentum, then the paths of

both of them will be equally curved.

Reason : Since they have same

momentum, orbital radius will be same.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

4) Assertion : The energy of a charged

particle does not change, when it moves

inside the magnetic field.

Reason : It is because, force on the

charged particle due to the magnetic

field acts perpendicular to its path.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

5) Assertion : The coils of spring come

close to each other, when current is passed

through it.

Reason : It is because, the coils of a

spring carry current in the same direction

and hence attract each other.

1) A 2) B

3) C 4) D 

6) Assertion : If the current in a solenoid

is reversed in direction while keeping the

same magnitude, the magnetic field energy

stored in the solenoid decreases.

Reason : The magnetic field energy

density is proportional to the square of

magnetic field.

1) A. 2) B

3) C. 4) D

7) Assertion : The range of an ammeter

can be both increased or decreased.

Reason: The required shunt resistance

can be calculated by using the relation,

R = G S/ G + S

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

8) Assertion: The range of a

voltmeter can be both increased or

decreased.

Reason : The required resistance

can be calculated by using the relation,

R = V / Ig – G

1) A. 2) B

3) C. 4) D

9) Assertion : When a bar magnet is cut

into two equal pieces transverse to its length,

the dipole moment of each piece is one half of

that of the magnet.

Reason : The pole strength if the each piece

remains the same. As the each piece possess

half the length of the magnet, the dipole

moment of a piece also becomes one half of

that of the magnet.

1) A. 2) B

3) C. 4) D

10) Assertion : Both A m^2 and J

T^-1 are the units of magnetic dipole

moment.

Reason: Both units are equivalent

to each other.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

11) Assertion : An atom behaves as a

magnetic dipole.

Reason : It is because, an atom contains

equal positive and negative charges.

1) A 2) B

3) C 4) D 

12) Assertion : The direction of magnetic

field due to a bar magnet at a point on its

axial line or equitorial line is same as that

of its magnetic dipole vector.

Reason : It is because, the direction of

magnetic field due to a bar magnet is always

along the magnetic dipole moment vector

1) A. 2) B

3) C. 4) D

13) Assertion : The potential energy of a

magnetic dipole is maximum, when it is

oriented anti parallel to the direction of the

magnetic field.

Reason: Because, work done is maximum,

when the magnet lying along the direction of

the field is turned so as to make it antiparallel

to the direction of the magnetic field.

1) A. 2) B

3) C. 4) D

14) Assertion : The true geographic

north direction is found by using a compass

needle.

Reason : The magnetic meridian of the

earth is along the axis of rotation of the

earth.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

15) Assertion : Magnetic Induction may

be measured as T, N/mA, or J /A m^2.

Reason : All the three are equivalent.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

16) Assertion : We cannot think of

magnetic field configuration with three

poles.

Reason: A bar magnet does exert a

torque on itself due to its own field.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

17) Assertion : The magnetic field at

the ends of a very long current carrying

solenoid is half of that at the centre.

Reason:If the solenoid is sufficiently

long, the field within it is uniform.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D 

18) Assertion:If two long wires,

hanging freely are connected to a

battery in series, they come closer to

each other.

Reason:Force of attraction acts

between the two wires carrying current.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

19) Assertion :Free electron always keep on

moving in a conductor even then no magnetic

force act on them in magnetic field unless a

current is passed through it.

Reasons : The average velocity of free

electron is zero.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D

20) Assertion :Magnetic moment of

an atom is due to both, the orbital

motion and spin motion of every

electron

Reason :A charged particle produces

a magnetic field.

1) A

2) B

3) C

4) D
