Physics · Rotational Motion and Angular Momentum
Given below are two statements, one labeled as Assertion (A) and the other as Reason (R): Assertion (A): A diver tucks their body during a somersault to increase rotational speed. Reason (R): Decreasing the moment of inertia while conserving angular momentum increases the angular velocity. Choose the correct option:
- 1Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A✓
- 2Both A and R are true, but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
- 3A is true, but R is false
- 4A is false, but R is true
Correct answer
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
