A small mass $'m'$ rests at the edge of a horizontal disc of radius $'R'$ . The coefficient of static friction between mass and the disc is $\mu $ . The disc is rotated about its axis at an angular velocity such that the mass slides off the disc and lands on the floor $'h'$ meters below. What was its horizontal distance of travel from the point it left the disc?
Assertion : Standard optical diffraction gratings can not be used for discriminating between $X-$ ray wavelengths.

Reason : The grating spacing is not of the order of $X-$ ray wavelengths.
