    Direction for: In each of the following questions a statement of Assertion is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason just below it. Of the statements mark the correct answer as

    Assertion In a stationary wave, there is no transfer of energy. Reason There is no outward motion of the disturbance from one particle to adjoing particle in a stationary wave.

    A)  If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion,         

    B)  If both Assertion and Reason are true but the Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.

    C)  If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

    D)  If both Assertion and Reason are false.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    In stationary wave, total energy associated with it is twice the energy of each of incidence and reflected wave. Large amount of energy are stored equally in standing waves and became trapped with the waves. Hence, there is no transmission of energy through the waves.
