NEET Physics Resistance Assertion Reason Question
Given below are two statements: Statement I : The equivalent resistance of resistors in a series combination is smaller than least resistance used in the combination. Statement II : The resistivity of the material is independent of temperature. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Statement 1 is false but Statement II is true
Both Statement I and Statement II are false
Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Statement I is incorrect as the equivalent resistance in series is the sum of individual resistances. Statement II is true as resistivity is a material property.
