Assertion: Short wave bands are used for transmission of radio waves to a large distance.
Reason : Short waves are reflected by ionosphere
(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 reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
(c)If assertion is true but reason is false.

Answer: Option A
:
A
Having the range of wavelength from 30kmto 30cmare known as short wave. These waves are used for radio transmission and for general communication purpose to a longer distance from ionosphere. Ionosphere is the outermost region of atmosphere extending from height of 80kmto 400kmapproximately, above the surface of earth. Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
