For two statements are given $-$ one labelled Assertion $(A)$ and the other labelled Reason $(R)$. Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes $\ce{(a), (b), (c)}$ and $(d)$ as given below :
Assertion : The scattering of longer wavelengths of light increases as the size of the particles increases.
Reason : Large particles scatter lights of all wavelengths equally well.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is correct explanation of the assertion.
  • Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
  • C

  • D
    $A$ is false but $R$ is true.

Answer

Correct option: B.
