Answer
Correct option: B.
Velocity of sound $(332\,\,m/\sec )$
b
(b) Mach number $ = \frac{{{\rm{Velocity\, of\, object}}}}{{{\rm{Velocity \,of \,sound}}}}$.
(b) Mach number $ = \frac{{{\rm{Velocity\, of\, object}}}}{{{\rm{Velocity \,of \,sound}}}}$.

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
→Assertion $A :$ For a simple microscope, the angular size of the object equals the angular size of the image.
Reason $R$ : Magnification is achieved as the small object can be kept much closer to the eye than $25\, cm$ and hence it subtends a large angle.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
