A swimmer while jumping into water from a height easily forms a loop in the air, if

3. He keeps himself straight
4. None of the above
Assertion : A ladder is more apt to slip when you are high up on it than when you just begin to climb
Reason : At the high point on a ladder, the torque is large and on climbing up the torque is small
