Assertion: If two particles, moving with...

Assertion: If two particles, moving with constant velocities are to meet, the relative velocity must be along the line joining the two particles.
Reason: Relative velocity means motion of one particle as viewed from the other.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assersion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Suppose motion of `1` is viewed from `2` then as `2` is stationary, If `1` is to meet it, it `1` must come straight towards `2` i.e., the relative velocity must be along `1-2`.

Two particles move with constant velocities towards point O along straight lines in a plane as shown. The shortest distance A and B is

Assertion: When a particle moves with constant velocity its average velocity, its insttantaneous velocity and its speed are all equal in magnitude. Reason: If the average velocity of a particle moving on a straight line is zero in a time interval, then it is possible that the instantaneous velocity is never zero in the internal.

Assertion : Distance between two particles moving with consant velocities always remains constant. Reason : In the above case, relative motion between them is uniform.

Assertion : If a particle moves with a constant velocity, then angular momentum of this particle about any point remains constant. Reason : Angular momentum has the units of Plank's constant.

A particle is moving along a circle of radius 20cm , with a linear velocity of 2m//s. Calculate the angular velocity of the particle.

Assertion : A particle moves along circular path with constant speed then acceleration must be present. Reason : A particle moves with variable velocity then acceleration must be present.
