Assertion (A) : The strength of the magnetic field produced at the centre of a current carrying circular coil increases on increasing the number of turns in it.
Reason (R) : The current in each circular turn has the same direction and the magnetic field due to each turn then just adds up.

Answer
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
Reason — Magnetic field strength is directly proportional to the number of turns of the circular coil. Hence, strength of the magnetic field increases on increasing the number of turns in it because current in each circular turn has the same direction and the magnetic field due to each turn then just adds up.
