Assertion : If a body of mass m is projected upwards with a speed V making an angle

\theta

with the vertical, than the change in the momentum of the body along X–axis is zero.
Reason : Mass of the body remains constant along X–axis.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is not a correct explanation for assertion

Option B (Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is not a correct explanation for assertion) is correct because while both statements are true, the constant mass along the x-axis doesn't directly explain why the change in momentum is zero.
