Assertion : A hollow metallic closed container maintained at a uniform temperature cab act as a source of black body radiation.
Reason : All metals act as a black body.

A

If both, Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of the Asserrion.

B

If both,Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true but the Reason is false.

D

If both, Assertion and Reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Here, Assertion is true but Reason is false because the metals with highly polised surface cannot act as black bodies.
