Assertion : Two strins shown in figure have the same tension. Speed of transverse waves in string`-1` will be more.
Reason : `v prop (1)/sqrt(mu)`,Here`mu is mass per unit length of string.

A

If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct expanation of the Assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is not correct expanation of the Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Just by observation we cannot say that `mu_(2) gt mu_(1)` and hence `v_(2) gt v_(1)`.
If their densities are different, then `mu_(2)` may be less then `mu_(1)` also.
