These questions of two statements each, printed as Assertion and Reason. While answering these Questions you are required to choose any one of the following four responses.

                (A) If both Assertion & Reason are true & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.

                (B) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.

                (C)  If Assertion is true but the Reason is false.

                (D) If Assertion & Reason both are false.

Answer:1 

Q.13     Assertion :  A car moving on a horizontal road may be thrown out of the road in taking a turn due to lack of proper centripetal force.
