Question

Assertion (A): Frequency is a measurable quantity. It depends on the source producing the sound.

Reason (R): Pitch depends on the sensation as perceived by a listener.

Options

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion.

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correction explanation of Assertion.

• Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.

• Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.

Answer 1

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correction explanation of Assertion.

Explanation:

The assertion is true because frequency is measurable and depends on the source producing the sound. The reason is also true because pitch is the sensation perceived by a listener. However, this does not explain why frequency depends on the source.
