Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason RAssertion A: In electrostatics, a conductor does not store any net charge inside.
Reason R: Inside the capacitor (with no dielectric medium), the free charge carriers, if placed between the plates of capacitor, experience force and drift.Choose the correct answer from the options given below
Official answer
From NTA’s final answer key for this paper.
(2)
Both $\displaystyle \mathbf{A}$ and $\displaystyle \mathbf{R}$ are true but $\displaystyle \mathbf{R}$ is NOT the correct explanation of $\displaystyle \mathbf{A}$
