Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R. Assertion A: In a central force field, the work done is independent of the path chosen. Reason R: Every force encountered in mechanics does not have an associated potential energy. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
1
A is true but R is false
2
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
3
