Question

Assertion (A): The rainbow is a natural spectrum of sunlight in the sky.
Reason (R) : Rainbow is formed in the sky when the sun is overhead and water droplets are also present in air.

• A. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
• B. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of the Assertion (A).
• C. Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.
• D. Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Rainbows form due to refraction, dispersion, and reflection of sunlight in water droplets, typically when the sun is low in the sky (morning or late afternoon), not overhead.
