Assertion: When a body dropped from a height explodes in mid air, its centre of mass keeps moving in vertically downward direction.
Reason: Explosion occur under internal forces only. External force is zero.

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 explosion is due to internal forces, and the center of mass continues its downward motion unaffected by these internal forces.
