Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
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 the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Official answer
