Assertion: Magnetic force between two charges is generally much smaller than the electric force between them.
Reason: Speeds of charges are much smaller than the free–space speed of light.
Reason: Speeds of charges are much smaller than the free–space speed of light.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion
Option A (If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion) is correct because the magnetic force is much smaller than the electric force due to the relatively low speeds of charges compared to the speed of light.
