NEET Physics Self & Mutual Induction Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The self-inductance of a coil is dependent on the permeability of the medium inside it. | Reason (R): The self-induced emf in a coil opposes any change in current, similar to how mass opposes changes in motion.
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
While both the assertion and the reason are true, the reason does not directly explain the dependence of self-inductance on the permeability of the medium; it rather describes the opposition characteristic of self-induced emf, which is an analogy to inertia.
