The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion The magnetic field at the ends of a very long current carrying solenoid is half of that at the centre, that is. Bend=12Bin.
Also for a long solenoid, magnetic field is uniform within it but this reason is not explaining the assertion.
