Assertion : X-rays are used to study the interior of objects .
Reason : X-rays have very short wavelengths and possess electromagnetic character.

A

if both assertion and reason are correct and reason is correct explanation for assertion .

B

If both assertion and reason are correct but reason in not correct explanation for assertion.

C

If assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.

D

If both assertion and reason are incorrect.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Correct explanation. Since X-rays are not deflected by electric and magnetic fields and have also very high penetrating power through the matter, these can be used to study interior of objects.
