Question
Assertion (A): As the temperature of a medium increases the refractive index decreases.
Reason (R): When a ray travels from a vacuum to a medium, then $\mu$ is known as the absolute refractive index of the medium. ( $\mu_{\text {vacuum }}=1$ ).

Answer

(B) Both A and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of A.
Explanation: Both A and R are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A$.
