Question

Assertion Reason (A): A capacitor can be given only a limited amount of charge. (R): After given limited amount of charge the dielectric strength between the plates of capacitor breakdown. (a) both A and Rare true and R is the correct explanation of A. (b) both A and Rare true but Ris not the correct explanation of A. (c) A is true but Ris false, (d) A is false and R is also false​

Answer 1

(b) both A and Rare true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:

Option :  (b) both A and Rare true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

The charges are not commonly provided by the material that accumulate on the plates of a capacitor of the plates but by the source that is charging them, so there is no limit of amouny of charge they can hold. But it is only applicable if the source is strong enough. And there is no connection in between the breakdown of plates and charge of dielectric strength.
