JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 9.2 surface tension
Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion \((A)\) and the other is labelled as Reason \((R)\). Assertion \((A)\): Clothes containing oil or grease stains cannot be cleaned by water wash. Reason \((R)\): Because the angle of contact between the oil/ grease and water is obtuse. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the option given below.
- A Both \((A)\) and \((R)\) are true and \((R)\) is the correct explanation of \(( A )\)
- B Both \((A)\) and \((R)\) are true but \((R)\) is not the correct explanation of \(( A )\)
- C \((A)\) is true but \((R)\) is false
