Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A)$: Time period of oscillation of a liquid drop depends on surface tension $(S)$,if density of the liquid is $\rho$ and radius of the drop is $r$,then $T = k \sqrt{\rho r^{3} / S}$ is dimensionally correct,where $k$ is dimensionless.
Reason $(R)$: Using dimensional analysis,we find that the $R.H.S.$ has different dimensions than that of the time period.

  • 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
  • D
    $(A)$ is false but $(R)$ is true
