Q.6
(a) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. (b) If both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not correct explanation of the assertion. (c) If assertion is true, but reason is false. (d) If both assertion and reason are false. (e) If reason is true but assertion is false. Assertion: Generally the path of a projectile from the earth is parabolic but it is elliptical for projectiles going to a very great height. Reason: Up to ordinary height the projectile moves under a uniform gravitational force, but for great heights, projectile moves under a variable force.
