Reason (R): Wavelength of light wave is more than the wavelength of sound.
Solution:
Diffraction is pronounced when the wavelength is comparable to the obstacle size. Sound waves have large wavelengths (\( \text{meters}\)), making their diffraction common around everyday objects. Light waves have very small wavelengths (\( \text{nanometers}\)), so their diffraction is less observed. Thus, A is true. The wavelength of light is significantly smaller than the wavelength of sound. Thus, R is false.
