Q. Assertion :The current density →J at any point in ohmic resistor is in the direction of electric field →E at that point. Reason: A point charge when released from rest in a region having only electrostatic field always moves along electric lines of force.
- Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
- Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
- Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
- Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect
