NEET Physics AC Voltage Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): In an AC circuit, the total voltage across a resistor and capacitor in series is the vector sum of the individual voltages.
Reason (R): In AC circuits, voltages across different elements should be added by considering their phase differences.
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
The NCERT context emphasizes that while adding voltages across elements like resistors and capacitors, their phases must be considered, making the total voltage a vector sum.
