Assertion (A): The maximum possible speed of a car on a banked road is greater than that on a flat road. | Reason (R): The frictional force provides additional centripetal force on a banked road.

A

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false.
