Solution
The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect Newton's second law is the main law of motion because it mathematically governs and predicts the motion of any classical body under influence of a force.
All the three laws of Newton are independent of each other and none of them is contained in the other. Hence statement 2 is incorrect.
