STATEMENT-1: A cloth covers a table. Some dishes are kept on it. The cloth can be pulled out without dislodging the dishes from the table.
STATEMENT-2: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

A

(a) Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1

B

(b) Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is NOT a correct explaination for Statement-1

C

(c) Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False

D

(d) Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Statement 1 : Cloth can be pulled out without dislodging the dishes from the table because of inertia. Therefore, statement-1 is true.
Statement 2: This is Newton's third law and hence true. But statement 2 is not a correct explanation of statement 1.

Assertion:A table cloth can be pulled from a table without dislodging the dishes. Reason: To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

A : A person on a frictionless surface can get away from it by blowing air out of his mouth R : For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Statement -1 : Aeroplanes always fly at low altitudes. Statement -2 : Ac cording to Newton's third law of motion, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Two particles mass m_(1) and m_(2) are kept at rest at t=0 . They start attracting each other due to their gravitational pull, then STATEMENT-1 : The toal mometum of the system is zero at any instant. and STATEMENT-2 : Both are particles gain equal momentum in opposite direction in equl interval of time as both are acted upon equal and opposite forces.

Some question (Assertion-Reason type) are given below. Each question contains STATEMENT-1(Assertion) and STATEMENT-2(Reason) . Each question has 4 choices (A),(B),(C ) and (D) out of which ONLY ONE is correct. So select the correct choice : STATEMENT-1 : Two row boats moving parallel to one another are pulled towards one another. STATEMENT-2 : When the boats are close to each other, the velocity of water between them increases and pressure falls according to Bernoull's theorem.

STATEMENT -1 : Action and reaction acting on a particle cancels each other . STATEMENT -2 : Action and reaction pair acts on different particles . STATEMENT -3 : If an object is placed on a table then normal reaction by the table and weight are action reaction pair and they cancel each other .

A table cloth of length L is lying on a table with one of its end at the edge of the table. A block is kept at the centre of the table cloth. A man pulls the end of the table cloth horizontally so as to take it off the table. The cloth is pulled at a constant speed V_(0) . What can you say about the coefficient of friction between the block and the cloth if the block remains on the table (i.e., it does not fall off the edge) as the cloth is pulled out.
