Assertion A capacitor can be given only a limited quantity of charge Reason A capacitor is an arrangement which can store sufficient quantity of charge
- A. Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
- B. Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
- C. Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
- D. Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct
Step-by-step solution
The assertion is correct because a capacitor can only store a limited amount of charge depending on its capacitance and the breakdown voltage of the dielectric. The reason is also correct as a capacitor can store a sufficient charge for practical applications, but it does not explain why the charge is limited; the limitation arises from factors like capacitance and breakdown, not merely from the ability to store charge.
