Question 13

Which of the following will NOT be observed when a multimeter (operating in resistance measuring mode) probes connected across a component, are just reversed?

Resistor: Symmetric dynamic behavior $$\implies $$Equal steady deflection (True)

LED (Diode): Unidirectional conduction $$\implies $$ Deflection/light in forward bias, no deflection in reverse bias (True)

Metal wire: Direct path of negligible resistance $$\implies $$Maximum stable deflection in both configurations (True)

Capacitor: Charges via the multimeter internal source $$\implies $$ Initial deflection that decays to zero in both cases

Option (B): The statement claims there is "NO deflection in both cases", which is physically incorrect because a dynamic charging/discharging deflection is always observed momentarily upon connecting or reversing the probes.
