5000 Å
6000 Å
7200 Å
Assertion: Coloured spectrum is seen when we look through a muslin cloth.
Reason: It is due to the diffraction of white light on passing through fine slits

If both assertion and reason are true but assertion is not a correct explanation of the assertion.
If the assertion is true but the reason is false.
If both assertion and reason are false.

if assertion is true but reason is false
if both assertion and reason are false statements
Assertion: A beam of charged particles is employed in the treatment of cancer.
Reason: Charged particles on passing through a material medium lose their energy by causing ionization of the atoms along their path.

If assertion is false but reason is true.
Assertion: When tiny circular obstacle is placed in the path of light from some distance, a bright spot is seen at the centre of the shadow of the obstacle.
Reason: Destructive interference occurs at the centre of the shadow.
If both the assertion and reason are true and reason is a correct explanation of the assertion.
If both assertion and reason are true but assertion is not a correct explanation of the assertion.
If the assertion is true but the reason is false
If both assertion and reason are false.
Two polaroids are crossed. If now one of them is rotated through 30° and unpolarized light of intensity IO is incident on the first polaroid, then the intensity of transmitted light will be

3Io/8
Io/8
A double slit experiment is performed with light of wavelength 500 nm. A thin film of thickness 2 μm and refractive index 1.5 is introduced in the path of the upper beam. The location of central maximum will

shift upward by nearly two fringes
shift downward by 10 fringes
