The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that "Greater is the height of the T.V. transmitting antenna, greater is its range." - This implies that there is a direct relationship between the height of the antenna and its range. If the height increases, the range also increases. 2. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason states that "The range of T.V. transmitting antenna is proportional to the square root of its height." - This means that if we denote the height of the antenna as \( H_T \), the range \( D \) can be expressed as: \[ D \propto \sqrt{H_T} \] - This indicates that the range increases with the square root of the height. 3. **Mathematical Relationship**: - The relationship between the range and height can be derived from the formula: \[ D = \sqrt{2R \cdot H_T} \] - Squaring both sides gives: \[ D^2 = 2R \cdot H_T \] - This shows that \( D^2 \) is directly proportional to \( H_T \), which implies that if the height increases, the range also increases. 4. **Evaluating the Truth of A and R**: - Since the assertion (A) states that greater height leads to greater range, and we have established that this is true based on the mathematical relationship, we conclude that A is true. - The reason (R) also holds true because it correctly describes the relationship between range and height as being proportional to the square root of the height. 5. **Conclusion**: - Both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) are true, and R correctly explains A. Therefore, the correct answer is: - Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A. ### Final Answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
