Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : Time period of a simple pendulum is longer at the top of a mountain than that at the base of the mountain.

Reason (R) : Time period of a simple pendulum decreases with increasing value of acceleration due to gravity and vice-versa.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • B (A) is true but (R) is false.
  • C Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • D (A) is false but (R) is true.
