Assertion :  Newton’s rings are formed in the reflected system. When the space between the lens and the glass plate is filled with a liquid of refractive index greater than that of glass, the central spot of the pattern is dark.

Reason     : The reflection is Newton’s ring cases will be from a denser to a rarer medium and the two interfering rays are reflected under similar conditions.
