Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A) : Time period of a simple pendulum is longer at the top of a mountain than that at the base of the mountain. Reason (R): Time period of a simple pendulum decreases with increasing value of acceleration due to gravity and vice-versa. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate
Options
- ABoth (( A ) ) and (( R ) ) are true and (( R ) ) is the correct explanation of (( A ) )
- B(A) is true but (R) is false
- C(A) is false but (R) is true
- DBoth (( A ) ) and (( R ) ) are true but (( R ) ) is not the correct explanation of (( A ) )
Correct answer
A. Both (( A ) ) and (( R ) ) are true and (( R ) ) is the correct explanation of (( A ) )
