Assertion : A particle has constant acceleration is x-y plane. But neither of its acceleration components `(a_x and a_y)` is zero. Under this condition particle cannot have parabolic path.
Reason : In projectile motion, horizontal component of acceleration is zero.

A

(a)If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

(b)If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

(c) If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

(d) If Assertion is false, but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In a projectile motion along an inclined plane,
normally we take x and y-axis along the plane and
perpendicular to it. In that case, `a_x and a_y` both are
non-zero.

Assertion :- A particle having zero acceleration must have constant speed. Reason :- A Particle having constant speed must have zero acceleration.

Assertion : A body having uniform speed is circular path has a constant acceleration . Reason : Direction of acceleration is always away from the centre.

Assertion :- A particle has positive acceleration it means that its speed always increases. Reason :- Acceleration is the rate of change of speed with respect to time.

In simple harmonic motion, acceleration of the particle is zero, when its

Projectile motion is a combination of two one-dimensional motion: one in horizontal and other in vertical direction. Motion in 2D means in a plane. Necessary condition for 2D motion is that the velocity vector is coplanar to the acceleration vector. In case of projectile motion, the angle between velocity and acceleration will be 0^@ltthetalt180^@ . During the projectile motion, the horizontal component of velocity ramains unchanged but the vertical component of velocity is time dependent. Now answer the following questions: A particle is projected from the origin in the x-y plane. The acceleration of particle in negative y-direction is alpha . If equation of path of the particle is y = ax - bx^2 , then initial velocity of the particle is
