Assertion: We can apply `tau=I alpha` about the centre of mass of the system in non-inertial frame of reference.
Reason: Torque of pseudo forces about centre of mass is zero

A

If both assertion and reason are correct and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.

D

If assertion is incorrect but reason is correct

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Torque of pseudo forces about centre of mass is always zero. So we can always apply `tau=I alpha` about the centre of mass even when frame is non-inertial.
