Assertion (A): The unit of force is defined as one that causes an acceleration of 1 m/s² to a mass of 1 kg. | Reason (R): The second law of motion states that force is proportional to the product of mass and acceleration when the constant of proportionality is chosen as 1.
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.
