For a system of particles under Central force field, the total angular momentum is conserved. Reason (R): The torque acting on such a system is zero.
Under the central force field, the force acts along the line that joins the bodies so it has no rotary effect, that is, the torque is zero. Therefore, the angular momentum is conservative.
Both the assertion and reason are correct.
I hope this answer helps. All the very best for your future endeavors!
