Assertion : Magnitude of an alternating current changes with time.
Reason: The direction of a.c. changes after every 1/100th part of a
second in our household circuits.
Answers
Answer:
both assertion and reason is correct
Both Assertion and Reason are correct.
Explanation:
It depends on the frequency we use. The frequency used is 50 Hz in India and all other Asian countries, but 60 Hz in Europe.
At a frequency of 50 Hz
Period = 1 / frequency = 1/50 = 0.02 seconds.
This means that the current ends its cycle in 0.02 seconds.
A cycle has a positive and a negative part.
Then the alternating current changes its polarity every 0.01 seconds.
So answer your question
In one second, the current changes its polarity by 1 / 0.01 = 100 times.
