Assertion: A body having non zero acceleration can have a constant velocity.
Reason: Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

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:
D

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity i.e., `a = (dv)/(dt)`.

    Can a body have acceleration without having velocity?

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

    Statement-I : When velocity of a particle is zero then acceleration of particle is zero. Statement-II : Acceleration is equal to rate of change of velocity.

    A : It is not possible to have constant velocity and variable acceleration. R : Accelerated body cannot have constant velocity.

    Assertion : Slope of momentum - time graph gives acceleration Reason : Acceleration is given by rate of change of momentum .
