Given below are two statements: 

Assertion (A): In Young's double-slit experiment the two slits are at a distance apart. The interference pattern is observed on a screen at a distance D from the slits and a dark fringe is observed. The wavelength of the wave is proportional to the square of the distance between two slits.
Reason (R): For a dark fringe, intensity is zero.
  
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.
