Assertion: The television broadcasting becomes weaker with increasing distance.
Reason: The power transmitted from T.V. transmitter varies inversely as the distance of the receiver.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reasion are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reasion is false.

D

If assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
As the distance increases, TV signals becomes weaker. So assertion is true. The power transmitted from TV transmitter is inversely propportional to the square of the distance of the receiver. That's why reason is false.

Assertion: The image distance in the eye increases, when we increase the distance of an object from the eye. Reason: For normal eye, image distance in the eye is fixed, being equal to distance of retina from the eye lens. The focal length of the eye lens is changed on account of accommodation power of the eye.
