NEET Physics AC Voltage Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): In an AC circuit with a predominantly capacitive nature, the current leads the source voltage.
Reason (R): The phase angle is positive when the capacitive reactance is greater than the inductive reactance .
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.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the NCERT context, if , the circuit is predominantly capacitive, leading to a positive phase angle , which causes the current to lead the source voltage.
