Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R
Assertion A : An electric fan continues to rotate for some time after the current is switched off.
Reason R: Fan continues to rotate due to inertia of motion.
In the light of above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Assertion A : An electric fan continues to rotate for some time after the current is switched off.
