NEET Physics Angular Momentum Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Angular momentum is conserved in all types of collisions.
Reason (R): The total linear momentum is conserved in all collisions.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The assertion is false because angular momentum is not conserved in all collisions unless there is no external torque. The reason is true as linear momentum is conserved in all collisions.
