Assertion: Diode lasers are used as optical sources in optical communicatiod.
Reason: Diode lasers consume less energy.

Answer

  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation:
In optical communication, a semiconductor bases laser (diode laser) is used to generate analog signals or digital pulses for transmission through optical fibres. The advantages of diode lasers are their small size and low power input.

Assertion $(A):$ As work function of a material increases by some mechanism, it requires greater energy to excite the electrons from its surface.
Reason $(R):$ A plot of stopping potential $(V,)$ versus frequency $(\upsilon)$ for different metals, has greater slope for metals with greater work functions.
Assertion (A): In a hydrogen atom there is only one electron but its emission spectrum shows many lines.
Reason(R): In a given sample of hydrogen there are many atoms each containing one electron; hence many electrons in different atoms may be in different orbits so many transitions from higher to lower orbits are possible.
