Assertion (A): In an ideal step-down transformer, the electrical energy is not lost. Reason (R): In a step-down transformer,

Question

two statements are given - one labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled Reason (R).

Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes (A), (B), (C) and (D) as given below:

Assertion (A): In an ideal step-down transformer, the electrical energy is not lost.

Reason (R): In a step-down transformer, voltage decreases but current increases.

(A) If both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

(B) If both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

(C) If Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.

(D) If both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are false.

Answer 1

Correct option is : (B) If both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
