Assertion: Two bodies moving in opposite directions with same magnitude of linear momentum collide each other. Then, after collision both the bodies will come to rest.
Reason: Linear momentum of the system of bodies is zero.

A

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

B

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

C

If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
