Solution
The correct option is D Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct Potential difference across the side ab=Bvlcos60∘=12Bvl
Potential difference across the side bc=Bvl
Thus Va−Vb≠Vb−Vc
Consider forces acting on positive charges along the side ab. Force=q(→v×→B)
Thus the positive charges tend to move towards the side a. Similarly negative charges tend to move towards the side b. Thus a is at higher potential than b
