Understanding +4 | -1

Assertion: The centre of mass of a body may lie where there is no mass.
Reason: Centre of mass of a body is a point, where the whole mass of the body is supposed to be concentrated.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

Option A is correct because the assertion and reason are both true, and the reason correctly explains why the center of mass can lie where there is no mass.
