Assertion : There is no loss in energy in elastic collision.
Reason : Linear momentum is conserved in elastic collision. [AIIMS 2019)

a
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
b
Both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
c
Assertion is correct, but Reason is incorrect.
d
Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

detailed solution

Correct option is B

In elastic collision, total energy, kinetic energy and momentum remain conserved, therefore no loss in energyoccurs in elastic collision.Hence, both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
