Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A:$ Two metallic spheres are charged to the same potential. One of them is hollow and another is solid,and both have the same radii. The solid sphere will have a lower charge than the hollow one.
Reason $R:$ Capacitance of metallic spheres depends on the radii of the spheres.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below.

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