NEET Physics AC Voltage Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12
Assertion (A): In an AC circuit containing a capacitor, the current leads the voltage by a phase angle of 90 degrees. | Reason (R): The capacitive reactance in an AC circuit plays the role of resistance, limiting the amplitude of the current.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false.
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
While both the assertion and the reason are true, the reason does not explain the phase difference but rather describes the role of capacitive reactance in limiting current amplitude.
