Question

Assertion : In a simple battery circuit, the point of the lowest potential is positive terminal of the battery.
Reason : The current flows towards the point of the higher potential, as it does in such a circuit from the negative to the positive terminal.

• A. If both the assertion and reason are true and reason is a correct explanation of the assertion
• B. If both assertion and reason are true but assertion is not a correct explanation of the assertion
• C. If the assertion is true but the reason is false
• D. If both assertion and reason are false

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

In a battery circuit, the point of lowest potential is the negative terminal of the battery. And the current flows from higher potential to lower potential.
