Assertion (A) : In Young's double slit experiment, the fringes produced by red light are closer as compared to those produced by blue light.
Reason (R) : The fringe width is directly proportional to the wavelength of light.
In the light of above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- Option A:
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
- Option B:Correct
(A) is false but (R) is true
