Assertion (A): A hopper that bridges should first be fitted with a vibrator.

Reason (R): Outlet size is the governing variable in every arching criterion.

Select the correct answer from the options 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

Answer: D

Correct answer: A is false but R is true

The reason is true and it condemns the assertion. Since outlet size governs every arching criterion, the reliable cure is to enlarge the outlet beyond the critical dimension, after which no arch can support itself. A vibrator treats the symptom, and often makes matters worse by compacting the material further into the arch.
