Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
$Assertion$ $A$ : Number of photons increases with increase in frequency of light.
$Reason$ $R$ : Maximum kinetic energy of emitted electrons increases with the frequency of incident radiation.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are correct and $R$ is $NOT$ the correct explanation of $A$.
  • B
    $A$ is correct but $R$ is not correct.
  • C
    Both $A$ and $R$ are correct and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.
  • D
    $A$ is not correct but $R$ is correct.
