Statement-1 : A single lens produces a coloured image of an object illuminated by white light.
Statement-2 : The refractive index of material of lens is different for different wavelengths of light.

A

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true.
Statement-2 is correct explanation of Statement-1.

B

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true, but Statement-2 is not a correct explanation of Statement-1.

C

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false.

D

Statement-1 is fasle, Statement-2 is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
As `mu` of lens is different for different colours//wavelength, therefore, different colours are focussed at different points. That is why the image is coloured. Choice (a) is correct.
