Assertion `:` A double convex lens `(mu=1.5)` has focal length `10 cm`. When the lens is immersed in water `(mu=4//3)` its focal length becomes `40 cm`.
Reason `:` `(1)/(f)=(mu_(1)-mu_(m))/(mu_(m))((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))`

A

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.

B

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1.

C
