Question

Assertion (A): Potential difference across all the resistors connected in parallel is a constant quantity.

Reason (R): All the resistors in parallel have a common positive and common negative ends.

विकल्प

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.

• Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.

Answer 1

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

Explanation:

In a parallel connection, all resistors are connected between the same two common points. Therefore, the potential difference across each resistor is the same. The reason correctly explains why the potential difference is constant across all resistors in parallel.
