A steady current flows in a metallic conductor of non-uniform cross-section. Which of these quantities is constant along the conductor?
Electric field
Drift velocity
Current
Current density
Assertion: Total current entering a circuit is equal to leaving the circuit by Kirchhoff's law.
Reason: It is based on conservation of energy.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
If assertion is true but reason is false.
If both assertion and reason are false.
Assertion: Long distance transmission of a.c. is carried out at extremely high voltages.
Reason: Because when the distance is large, voltage has to be large.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
If assertion is true but reason is false.
