Solution
The correct option is D Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct An inertial frame of reference is a reference frame in which an object stays either at rest or at a constant velocity unless another force acts upon it. When a body does not seem to be acting in accordance with inertia, it is in a non-inertial frame of reference.
Therefore, clearly, the assertion is false and in reason, 1st law of motion is applied.
