Statement-1: On reflection from a rigid ...

Statement-1`:` On reflection from a rigid boundary (denser medium ), there is a complete reversal of phase
Statement-2`:` This is because on reflection from a denser medium, both the particle velocity and wave velocity are reversed in sign.

A

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

B

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

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Reflection from a rigid boundary is a case of reflection from a denser medium. In that case the particle velocity and wave velocity are reversed in sign.
