Assertion At highest point of a projectile, dot product of velocity and acceleration is zero.
Reason At highest point, velocity and acceleration are mutually perpendicular.

A

If both Asseration 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:
