Assertion : There are two propellers in ...

Assertion : There are two propellers in a helicopter.
Reason : Angular momentum is conserved.

A

If both, Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

If both, Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true but the Reason is false.

D

If both, Assertion and Reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Both, the assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion. Infact, if helicopter has only one propeller, the helicopter itself will turn in opposite direction to conserve the angular momentum.
