Assertion: Moment of inertia depends on the axis
of rotation and the nature of distribution of the
mass of the body.
Reason: Moment of inertia is the rotational inertia
of the body.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

Option B is correct because moment of inertia depends on the axis of rotation and mass distribution, and it represents the rotational inertia of the body, but the latter doesn't explain the former.
