Physics · Wave Optics
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): In the interference and diffraction of light, light energy reduces in one region producing a dark fringe, and increases in another region producing a bright fringe. Reason (R): This happens because energy is not conserved in the phenomena of interference and diffraction. Select the correct option:
- 1Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
- 2Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
- 3(A) is true but (R) is false.✓
- 4Both (A) and (R) are false.
