Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): The absorption line observed in the spectra of an element is never completely dark.
Reason (R): The sample used for absorption is thin, so that all photons corresponding to a transition may not be absorbed.
  
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
4. Both (A) and (R) are false.

In stimulated emission, an incoming photon interacts with an excited atom (e.g. \(\mathrm{H}^{*}\)) and brings the atom to its ground state, while an extra photon is emitted - as it happens in a laser. When a photon stimulates the emission of another photon, the two photons have:
1. the same phase.
2. the same energy.
3. the same direction.
4. the same phase, energy, and direction.
