Reason:-Electric charges exist only on the surface of conductor.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both Assertion & Reason are True but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion
Option B is correct because both the assertion and the reason are true, but the reason doesn't correctly explain the assertion. The electric field inside a metal is zero due to charge redistribution, not just the location of charges.
