Statement -1 : All the raindrops hit the surface of the earth with the same constant velocity.
Statement -2 : An object falling through a viscous medium eventually attains a teerminal velocity.

A

Statement -1 is true , Statement -2 is true , Statement -2 is a correct explanation of Statement -1.

B

Statement -1 is true , Statement -2 is true , Statement -2 is not a correct explanation of Statement -1.

C

Statement -1 is true, Statement -2 is false.

D

Statement -1 is false , Statement -2 is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Here statement - 1 is wrong, because terminal velocity of a falling drop is directly proportional to square of the radius of the drop, i.e., `v prop r^(2)` . Here, statement - 2 is correct, but can not explain statement - 1.
