Assertion and Reason

Directions : Choose the correct option.


(a) If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.
(b) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
(c) If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.
(d) If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

1. Assertion : If net force on a rigid body in zero, it is either at rest or moving with a constant
linear velocity. Nothing else can happen.
Reason : Constant velocity means linear acceleration is zero.
2. Assertion : Three concurrent forces are F1 , F2 and F3 . Angle between F1 and F2 is 30° and
between F1 and F3 is 120°. Under these conditions, forces cannot remain in equilibrium.
Reason : At least one angle should be greater than 180°.

3. Assertion : In the figure shown tension in string AB always lies between m1g and m2g.
(m1 ≠ m2 )
A
B

m1

m2

Reason : Tension in massless string is uniform throughout.


4. Assertion : Two frames S1 and S 2 are non-inertial. Then frame S 2 when observed from S1 is
inertial.
Reason : A frame in motion is not necessarily a non-inertial frame.
5.Assertion : Moment of concurrent forces about any point is constant.
Reason : If vector sum of all the concurrent forces is zero, then moment of all the forces about
any point is also zero.

6. A force F1 accelerates a particle from rest to a velocity v. Another force F2 decelerates the same
particle from v to rest, then
(a) F1 is always equal to F2
