Assertion (A): A current carrying straight conductor experiences a force when placed perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field.
Reason (R): The net charge on a current carrying conductor is always zero.
Options
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
(A) is true, but (R) is false.
(A) is false, but (R) is true.

Solution
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
Explanation:
Both statements are true but logic does not support either. The conductor experiences force as a result of the magnetic field's interaction with the external magnetic field.

The graph (fig A) illustrates the correlation between the number of protons (x-axis) and the number of neutrons (y-axis) for elements A, B, C, D, and E in the periodic table. These elements are denoted by the letters rather than their conventional symbols. When the element C, depicted in the graph, undergoes radioactive decay, it releases radioactive rays. When these rays are directed into the plane of the paper in the presence of a magnetic field, as indicated in the fig B, they experience deflection, causing them to move upwards.
