Statement -1 : A rain drop after fallling through some height attains a constant velocity.
Statement -2 : At constant velocity, the viscous drag is just to its weight.

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:
A
When a rain drop falls through a viscous medium, finally, it attains velocity. At this velocity, viscous force on rain drop balances the weight of the drop. Here statement - 2 is a correct explanation of statement - 1.

Statement I: A raindrop after failing through some height attains a constant velocity. Statement II: At constant velocity, the viscous drag is just equal to its weight.

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.

Some question (Assertion-Reason type) are given below. Each question contains STATEMENT-1(Assertion) and STATEMENT-2(Reason) . Each question has 4 choices (A),(B),(C ) and (D) out of which ONLY ONE is correct. So select the correct choice : STATEMENT-1 A rain drop after falling through a certain distance attains a constant velocity. STATEMENT-2 The viscous force for spherical body is proportional to its speed. Hence after falling through a certain distance viscous drag and buoyant forces balance the gravitational force.

Statement - 1: A particle moves along a straight line with constant velocity. Now a constant non-zero force is applied on the particle in direction opposite to its initial velocity. After the force is applied, the net work done by this force may be zero in certain time intervals. Statement - 2 : The work done by a force acting on a particle is zero in any time interval if the force is always perpendicular to velocity of the particle.

Statement-1: A gas filled balloon stops rising after it has attained a certain height in the sky. Statement-2: At the highest point the density of air is such that the buoyant force on the balloon just equals its weight.

An artificial satellite revolves around the Earth with a constant velocity. It’s the statement true ?

Statement I: An object from a greater height reaches a steady terminal velocity. Statement II: The viscous forces on a body depends upon its velocity. The greater the velocity the greater is the viscous force.

A body is just dropped from a height. What is its initial velocity?

Statement-1 : Velocity gradient has the dimensions of frequency. Statement -2 : Velocity gradient is rate of change of velocity with distance.
