In each of the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes (a), (b), (c) and (d) as given below:
Assertion (A): In a series circuit, the current is constant throughout the electric circuit.
Reason (R): All electric devices need equal currents to operate properly.
Solution
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false
As we know, current is constant in a series circuit as there is only one path for the flow of current but different devices connected in a circuit have different power ratings and therefore, it draws different amounts of current.
