Solution

The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
The electromagnetic waves of shorter wavelength do not suffer much difference from the obstacles of earth's atmosphere so they can travel long distance. Also shorter the wavelength shorter is the velocity of wave propagation.Hence , Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect .
