Assertion: In an elastic collision of tw...

Assertion: In an elastic collision of two bodies , the momentum and energy of each body is conserved.
Reason: If two bodies stick to each other , after colliding , the collision is said to be perfectly elastic.

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 the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
