Solution
The correct option is D Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct When we lower the water level in a resonance tube , length of air column increases hence number of loops (numbers of nodes and antinodes ) increases , hence we get more harmonics with higher frequency and lower wavelength . Therefore assertion is incorrect but reason is correct .
