    Choose the correct option for the following Assertion (A) and Reason (R).

    Assertion

    A simple pendulum inside a uniformly accelerating vehicle can still execute small SHM about a shifted equilibrium direction.

    Reason

    In the accelerating frame, gravity and the constant pseudo-acceleration combine to produce a constant effective gravity vector.
