Assertion : A man with a wristwatch spring wound his hand falls the top of a tower The watch show this correct time
Reason : The acceleration due to gravity have no effect on time period of watch of the time of filling

A

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

B

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

C

If assertion is true but the reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
When the man falls the top of a will be in the state of weidjhtlessness A spring would watch runs on the basis at spring action i.e. on the bases of the potential energy stored in the would spring since acceleration due to gravity does not play any rols the watch give correct time the man falls from the top of a tower.

A man with a wrist watch on his hands fall from the top of a tower. Does the watch give correct time?

How time period of a simple pendulum depends on the acceleration due to gravity ?

Answer the following questions: (a) Time period of particle is S.H.M. depends on the force constant k and mass m of the particle : T=2pisqrt(m//k). A simple pendulum executes S.H.M. approximately. Why then is the time-period of a pendulum independent of the mass of the pendulum? (b) The motino of simple pendulum is approximatley simple harmonic for small angles of oscillation. For large angle of oscillation, a more involved analysis (beyond the scope of this book) shows that T is greater that 2pisqrt(l//g) . Think of a quanlitative argument to appreciate this result. (c) A man with a wrist watch on his hand falls from the top of tower. Does the watch give correct time during the free fall? (d) What is teh frequency of oscillation of a simple pendulum mounted iin a cabin that is freely falling under gravity?

Assertion : A stone and a feather dropped from the same height do not reach the ground at the same time. Reason : Acceleration due to gravity is dependent on the mass of the object.

Assertion : The time period of a freely falling pendulum is infinite. Reason : The effective value of acceleration due to gravity becomes zero.

When a falling meteor is at a distance above the earth's surface 3 times the earth's radius, the acceleration due to gravity at that point is, (where g is acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth)

A pendulum has time period T . If it is taken on to another planet having acceleration due to gravityhalf and mass 9 times that of the earth then its time period on the other planet will be
