Assertion: Transverse waves are not produced in liquids and gases.
Reason: Light waves are transverse waves

Moderate

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
C

If assertion is true but reason is false.
D

Solution

Transverse waves travel in the form of crests and troughs involving change in shape of the medium. As liquids and gases do not possess the elasticity of shape, therefore, transverse waves cannot be produced in liquid and gases. Also light wave is one example of transverse wave.
