Question

Assertion: If current changes through a circuit, eddy currents are induced in nearby iron
piece.
Reason: Due to change of current, the magnetic flux through iron piece changes, so eddy
currents are induced in iron piece.

Answer 1

Answer:

ABoth Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion

BBoth Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion

CAssertion is true but Reason is false

DAssertion is false but Reason is true

Solution:

Answer (d) Assertion is false but Reason is true

Answer 2

The given Assertion and Reason is

Assertion: If current changes through a circuit, eddy currents are induced in the nearby iron piece.

Reason: Due to the change of current, the magnetic flux through the iron piece changes, so eddy currents are induced in the iron piece.

"And The Reason is true but the Assertion is false".

• Eddy currents are currents that circulate in conductors like swirling eddies in a stream.
• They are induced by changing magnetic fields and flow in closed loops, perpendicular to the plane of the magnetic field.

Hence, eddy currents are induced due to changes in magnetic flux.
