Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A:$ The beam of electrons shows wave nature and exhibits interference and diffraction.
Reason $R:$ Davisson-Germer experimentally verified the wave nature of electrons.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  • A
    $A$ is correct but $R$ is not correct.
  • B
    $A$ is not correct but $R$ is correct.
