Question
For question two statements are given-one labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes (a), (b), (c) and (d) as given below.

  1. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
  2. Both A and R are true, but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
  3. A is true, but R is false.
  4. A is false and R is also false.

Assertion (A): Balmer series lies in the visible region of electromagnetic spectrum.

Reason (R): $\frac{1}{\lambda}=\text{R}\Big(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{\text{K}^2}\Big)$, where K = 3, 4, 5, ...

Answer

  1. Both A and R are true, but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:

When we put R = 107m-1 and K = 3, 4 5, in the given formula, values of $\lambda$ calculated lie between 4000A and 8000A, which is the visible region. The reason is true, but does not explain the assertion properly.

Assertion (A): In Young's double slit experiment the two slits are at distance d apart. Interference pattern is observed on a screen at distance D from the slits. At a point on the screen when it is directly opposite to one of the slits, a dark fringe is observed. Then the wavelength of wave is proportional to square of distance of two slits.
Reason (R): For a dark fringe intensity is zero.

Assertion: An electric heater is heated first by direct and then by alternating currents. For both the currents, the potential difference across the ends of the heater is the same. The rate of production of heat will be different in two cases.
Reason: The resistance of a coil in altemating current will be more than the resistance of a coil in direct current, hence heat produced in case of direct current will be low.
