JEE Main 7 April 2025, Shift 2, Physics Q41

Question 41 of 75 in this shift, Physics question 16 of 25, Section A.

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A) : Refractive index of glass is higher than that of air. Reason (R) : Optical density of a medium is directly proportionate to its mass density which results in a proportionate refractive index. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
  1. (1)Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
  2. (2)Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
  3. (3)(A) is correct but (R) is not correctOfficial answer
  4. (4)(A) is not correct but (R) is correct
