Question
Assertion: For a glass block, the i vs. r graph is a straight line.
Reason: When a ray of light undergoes refraction, it follows Snell’s law.
Options
Both Assertion and Reason are true, and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.
Assertion is false, but the Reason is true.

Solution
Assertion is false, but the Reason is true.
Explanation:
The assertion is false because a graph of the angle of incidence versus the angle of refraction is not a straight line. Snell’s law states that the ratio of the sines of these angles is constant, which means a graph of sin i against sin r is a straight line. The reason is true.
