Consider the following statements:
Assertion $(A)$: $A$ cyclist always bends inwards while negotiating a curve.
Reason $(R)$: By bending,he provides the necessary centripetal force by shifting his centre of gravity.

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