Assertion : Within a glass slab, a doubl...

Assertion `:` Within a glass slab, a double convex air bubble is formed. This air bubble behaves like a converging lens.
Reason`:` Refractive index of air is more than the refractive index of glass.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The air bubble would behave as a diverging lens, because refractive index of air is less than refractive index of glass. However, the geometrical shape of the air bubble shall resemble a double convex lens.
