Given below are two statments: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A): When a convex lens \(\left(\mu_{q}=3 / 2\right)\) of focal length f is dipped in water \(\left(\mu_{m}=\frac{4}{3}\right)\), its focal length becomes 4f.

Reason (R): The focal length of convex lens is always half of its radius of curvature.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate from the options given below:

  1. (A) is true but (R) is false
  2. (A) is false but (R) is true
  3. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
  4. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

Answer

(A) (A) is true but (R) is false
