NEET Physics Chromatic Aberration Assertion Reason Question
Assertion: A Thick lens produces a coloured image of an object illuminated by white light. Reason: The refractive index of the material of lens is different for different wavelengths of light.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
If assertion is true but reason is false.
If both assertion and reason are false.
