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

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D
