Solution

The correct option is B If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
In damped oscillation like the motion of simple pendulum swinging in air, motion dies out eventually. This is because of the air drag and the friction at the support oppose the motion of the pendulum and dissipate its energy gradually.
