Physics-Resistance & Resistivity
NEET Physics Resistance & Resistivity Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 12
Assertion (A): The current at a junction in a circuit is the same as the current leaving it. | Reason (R): Kirchhoff's junction rule states that the algebraic sum of currents at a junction 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 but R is true.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Kirchhoff's junction rule ensures that the total current entering a junction equals the total current leaving it, thus explaining the assertion.
