Assertion: In case of bullet fired from ...

Assertion: In case of bullet fired from gun, the ration of kinetic energy of gun and bullet is equal to ration of mass of bullet and gun.
Reason: Kinetic energy `prop(1)/(mass)`, if momentum is constant.

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 but Reason is not the correct explanation of 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:
A
`p_1=p_2`
`:. sqrt(2K_1m_1)=sqrt(2K_2m_2)`
or `K_1/K_2=m_2/m_1`
`impliesKprop1/m`
