Statement - I : A cyclist always bends in wards while negotiating a curve.
Statement - II : By bending, he lowers his centre of gravity

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
