Assertion: During head on collision between two bodies let `Deltap_1` is change in momentum of first body and `Deltap_2` the change in momentum of the other body, then `Deltap_1=Deltap_2`.
Reason: Total momentum of the system should remain constant.

A

(a) If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

(b) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

C

(c) If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

(d) If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`Deltap_1+Deltap_2=0`
or `Deltap_1=-Deltap_2`
