Detailed Solution

When travelling through air, a spinning ball deviates from its parabolic trajectory.
Consider a situation where the ball is travelling forward and the air is moving backward in relation to the ball.
The ball experiences dynamic lift as a result, deviating from its parabolic trajectory. This phenomenon is called magnus effect which is an application of Bernoulli's principle.

Hence the correct answer is 'A' is false and 'R' is true.
