Assertion: Flight path of an object moving under the acceleration due to gravity can be straight line or a parabola depending on the initial conditions.
Reason: The shape of the flight path of the motion of an object is determined by the acceleration only.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
If assertion is true but reason is false
Option C is correct. The assertion is true because trajectory depends on initial conditions, but the reason is false as trajectory depends on both acceleration and initial conditions.
