Question

Assertion (A): Noise from construction sites is generally far worse than noise originating from factories.

Reason (R): Construction itself causes high noise emissions and the equipment used is inherently noisy.

पर्याय

• Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

• Both A and R are true but R does not explain A.

• A is true but R is false.

• A is false but R is true.

Answer 1

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:

Construction sites are generally noisier than factories because the activities involved, such as drilling and the use of heavy machinery, produce high levels of noise. The equipment used on construction sites, like jackhammers and cranes, is inherently noisy, contributing significantly to the sound levels. Therefore, the reason provided in R explains why construction noise is worse than factory noise.
