Vedclass · Answer

(A) green flower reflects only green light and absorbs all other wavelengths of light.Red glass acts as a filter that transmits only red light and absorbs or reflects all other colours.When light passes through red glass,only red light reaches the green flower.Since the green flower absorbs red light and reflects only green light (which is absent in the incident light),it reflects almost no light to the observer's eye.Therefore,the flower appears dark or black when viewed through red glass.Thus,both the Assertion and the Reason are correct,and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.

Assertion: The colour of a green flower seen through red glass appears to be dark.
Reason: Red glass transmits only red light.
