Assertion: On bringing a positively charged rod near the uncharged conductor, the conductor gets attracted towards the rod.
Reason: The electric field on the surface of a conductor is directly proportional to the surface charge density at that point.
Reason: The electric field on the surface of a conductor is directly proportional to the surface charge density at that point.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
The correct answer is B because both the assertion and reason are true, but the reason does not explain why the conductor is attracted to the rod. The attraction is due to induced charges.
