Assertion : If a plane glass slab is placed on the letters of different colours all the letters appear to be raised up to the same height. Reason : Different colours have different wavelengths.

Assertion : Productivity generally increases from polar regions toward the tropics. Reason : It is due to increasing sunlight and temperature toward the tropics.

Assertion (A): The blue colour of the sky is due to Ray light scattering Reason (R): As light moves through the atmosphere, most of the longer wavelengths pass straight through.

Assertion (A): Diffraction takes place with all types of waves. Reason (R): Diffraction is perceptible when the wavelength of the wave is comparable to the dimension of the diffracting device.

Assertion: White fibres appear pale or whitish. Reason: White fibes (muscles) possess very less quannty of myoblin

Assertion : Rainy clouds appear dark from below. Reason : There is not sufficient light which can be scattered by these clouds.

Assertion : Blue colour of sky appears due to scattering of blue colour. Reason : Blue colour has shortest wave length in visible spectrum.
