282803 Assertion: Dispersion of light occurs because velocity of light in a material depends upon its colour.
Reason: The dispersive power depends only upon the material of the prism, not upon the refracting angle of the prism.

1 If both Assertion and Reason are correct and reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
2 If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
3 If Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
4 If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect
