JEE Main 7 April 2025, Shift 2, Physics Q31

Question 31 of 75 in this shift, Physics question 6 of 25, Section A.

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A) : The radius vector from the Sun to a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time and thus areal velocity of planet is constant. Reason (R) : For a central force field the angular momentum is a constant. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
  1. (1)Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)Official answer
  2. (2)Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
  3. (3)(A) is correct but (R) is not correct
  4. (4)(A) is not correct but (R) is correct
