Assertion (A) : Time period of oscillation of a liquid drop depends on surf ace tension (S), if density of the liquid is ρ and radius of the drop is r, then is dimensionally correct, where K is dimensionless.
Reason (R) : Using dimensional analysis we get R.H.S. having different dimension than that of time period.
