Assertion : Light shows the phenomena of interference, diffrection and polarisation.
Reason : Because light behaves as corpuscles.

A

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

B

If both, Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explaination 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

The phenomenon of interference, diffraction and polarisation are explained on the basis of wave nature of light. The assertion is true, but the reason is false.
