Question

Assertion :When a voltage is applied to an inductor, it resists the change in current. The current builds up more slowly that the voltage, lagging it in time and phase. Reason: Since the voltage on a capacitor is directly proportional to the charge on it, the current must lead the voltage in time and phase to conduct charge to the capacitor plates and raise the voltage.

Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
As the supply voltage increases and decreases, the capacitor charges and discharges with respect to this change. We know that the charging current is directly proportional to the rate of change of the voltage across the plates with this rate of change at its greatest as the supply voltage crosses over from its positive half cycle to its negative half cycle or vice versa at points, 0o and 180o along the sine wave
