Assertion : The imges formed by total internal reflections are mucgh brighter than those formed by mirrors or lenses.
Reason : There is no loss of intensity of total internal reflection.

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 correct explanation of Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) In total internal reflection, 100% of incident light is reflected back into the same medium, and there is no loss of intensity, while in reflection from mirrors and refraction from lenses, there is always same loss of intensity. Therefore, images formed by total internal reflection are much brighter than those formed by mirrors or lenses
