Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): The cross-sections of the shaft which are plane before twist, remain plane during and after twist.
Reasons (R): The twisting moment does not vary with the radius of the shaft.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
1
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
2
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A)
3
(A) is true but (R) is false
4
(A) is false but (R) is true
