NEET Physics Question - Electrostatics

Assertion (A): The tyres of aircrafts are slightly conducting.

Reason (R): If a conductor is connected to ground, the extra charge induced on conductor will flow to ground.

Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)

Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)

(A) is true but (R) is false

Both (A) and (R) are false

Solution:

Assertion (A) is true: Aircraft tyres are made slightly conducting to discharge static electricity accumulated during flight.nReason (R) is true: Grounding allows excess charge to flow to Earth.

(R) correctly explains (A) as the purpose of conducting tyres is to discharge static charge to the ground safely.
