NEET Physics (general) Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12
Assertion (A): When a dielectric is inserted into a capacitor while disconnected from the supply, the charge remains constant. | Reason (R): A dielectric increases the capacitance of the capacitor but does not alter the charge on it.
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
The charge on the capacitor remains constant after disconnecting from the supply, and inserting a dielectric only changes the capacitance, not the charge.
