Assertion (A): A photon has no rest mass, yet it carries definite momentum.
Reason (R): Momentum of a photon is due to its energy and hence its equivalent mass.
- Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
- Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
- A is true but R is false.
- A is false but R is true.
Answer
(A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
