NEET Physics Question - Ray Optics

Assertion (A): For every observer rainbow is a personal one.

Reason (R): Every observer intercepts light from same water drops.

Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)

Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)

(A) is true but (R) is false

Both (A) and (R) are false

Solution:

Assertion (A) is true; a rainbow's apparent position depends on the observer's location and the specific light rays from water droplets they intercept. Reason (R) is false; different observers see rainbows formed by light from *different* sets of water drops at different angles. Thus, A is true and R is false.
