The correct option is B Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.

If you pull the cloth out abruptly in the horizontal direction, the dishes will remain intact on the table. Because of inertia, the dishes cannot move sideways immediately and will touch the bare surface of the table where they will rest as before.

Statement-2 is Newton’s third law which is not the reason for statement-1.

So, the correct option is (b).
