Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): The kinetic energies of two identical particles of a rotating rigid body are proportional to the square of their respective distances from the axis of rotation.
Reason (R): The kinetic energy of a particle is \(\Large\frac12\)\(mv^2,\) while the velocity \(v\) is proportional to the distance from the axis of rotation \(\text{(}r\text{):} \) \(v=\omega r, \) \(\omega\) is the angular speed.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.
