Physics-Kirchhoff's Laws

NEET Physics Kirchhoff's Laws Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12

Assertion (A): Kirchhoff's loop rule is based on the conservation of energy in an electrical circuit. | Reason (R): The sum of the electromotive forces and potential differences around any closed loop in a circuit is zero.

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 A

Detailed Explanation

Both the assertion and reason are true as Kirchhoff's loop rule is derived from the conservation of energy principle, and the loop rule states that the sum of the EMFs and potential differences in a loop is zero.
