- Correct answerABoth and are true and is the correct explanation of
- BBoth and are true but is not the correct explanation of
- Cis true but is false
- Dis false but is true
Solution
The vector component along the line parallel to is
The figure below represents the vectors.

Now,
Thus, (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
