    In each of the following questions, a statement of assertion (A) is given followed by a corresponding statement of reason (R) just below it. Of the statements, mark the correct answer is: (a) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

Q Assertion: The relation among u, v and f for the spherical mirror is valid for mirors whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvature. Reason: The laws of reflection are strictly valid for plane surfaces but not for large spherical surfaces.

    Suppose India had a target of producing by 2020 AD, 200,200 MW of electric power, ten percent of which was to be obtained from nuclear power plants. Suppose we are given that, on an average, the efficiency of utillization (i.e, conversion to electric energy) of thermal energy produced in a reactor was 25%.
