Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: In electrostatics, a conductor does not store any net charge inside.
Reason $R$: Inside the capacitor (with no dielectric medium), the free charge carriers, if placed between the plates of capacitor, experience force and drift.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.
  • B
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is $NOT$ the correct explanation of $A$.
  • C
    $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false but $R$ is true.
