$Assertion$ : Radius of gyration of a body is a constant quantity.
$Reason$ : The radius of gyration of a body about an axis of rotation may be defined as the root mean square distance of the particles from the axis of rotation.

  • A
    If both $Assertion$ and $Reason$ are correct and the $Reason$ is a correct explanation of the $Assertion$.
  • B
    If both $Assertion$ and $Reason$ are correct but $Reason$ is not a correct explanation of the $Assertion$.
  • C
    If the $Assertion$ is correct but $Reason$ is incorrect.
