Assertion (A): Collection growth accelerates as a collector drop enlarges, unlike condensation.
Reason (R): Both the swept volume and the difference in fall speed increase with the collector size.

  • A.A is true but R is false
  • B.A is false but R is true
  • C.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • D.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A

Answer: C

Correct answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Both are true and the reason gives the mechanism. A larger collector sweeps a wider path and falls faster relative to the droplets it meets, so its rate of collection accelerates as it grows. Condensation does the opposite: the same vapour flux spread over a larger surface makes the radius grow ever more slowly, which is why condensation alone cannot produce rain.
