Assertion (A): A steering damper is fitted to a beam front axle.

Reason (R): The rigid connection between the wheels allows an oscillation to build up.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.A is true but R is false
  • B.A is false but R is true
  • C.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • D.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A

Answer: C

A disturbance at one wheel reaches the other through the beam and couples with the steering, which can sustain itself as shimmy. The damper absorbs the energy. The reason therefore explains why the component is needed on this axle type and not on an independent one. Tracing the requirement back to the physical constraint that produces it makes the answer follow. Checking which component actually carries the load settles most questions of this kind at once.
