Assertion : By roughening the surface of a glass sheet its transparency can be reduced.
Reason : Glass sheet with rough surface absorbs more light.

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:
C
When glass surface is made rough then the light falling on it is scattered in different direction due to which its transparency decreases.
