Assertion: Our ears cannot distinguish two notes, one produced by a viloin and other by a sitar, if they have exactly the same intensity and the same frequeucny.
Reason: When a musical instrument is played, if produces a fundamental note which is accompanied by a number of overtones called harmonics.
