Question:
Assertion (A): Electrons move from lower potential to higher potential in a conductor. Reason (R): A dry cell maintains electric potential difference across the ends of a conductor.
Assertion (A): Electrons move from lower potential to higher potential in a conductor. Reason (R): A dry cell maintains electric potential difference across the ends of a conductor.

- Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
- Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
- Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.
- Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Electrons flow from high to low potential. While a dry cell maintains electric potential difference, it does not fully explain the assertion. Thus, both are true but unrelated.
