CBSE Class 12 Physics 2026: question 13
Set in the CBSE Class 12 board exam of 2026, paper 55/5/1, section A, question 13, for 1 mark. Try it first; the hints and our step-by-step solution are below.
Q13 · 1 mark · Assertion-reasonCompetency-basedElectromagnetic Induction
Assertion (A) : Induced emf produced in a coil will be more when the magnetic flux linked with the coil is more.
Reason (R) : Induced emf produced is directly proportional to the magnetic flux.
- (A)Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
- (B)Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
- (C)Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.
- (D)Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are false.

Hints
Open one hint at a time and try again before the next.
Hint 1
State Faraday's law.
Hint 2
Does a large but constant flux induce any emf?
Step-by-step solution
Each step shows the marks it earns, as an examiner would award them. Checked by an independent re-solve from the question paper.
By Faraday's law, . The induced emf depends on the rate of change of flux, not on the flux itself.
- 1 mark
A large flux that is not changing produces no emf, so both A and R are false.
Answer: Option (D)
Where the marks are
- Recognises emf ∝ rate of change of flux, so both are false (1 mark)
