Knowledge Check

  • Assertion: When the body is dropped or thrown horizontally form the same height, it would reach the ground at the same time. Reason: Horizontal velocity has no effect on the vertical direction.

    A
    If both the assertion and reason are true and reason is a true explantion of the assertion.
    B
    If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not true the correct explantion of the assertion.
    C
    If the assertion is true but reason false
    D
    If both the assertion and reason are false.
  • A: A body X is dropped from the top of a tower. At the same time, another body Y is thrown horizontally from the same position with a velocity u . Both bodies will reach the ground at the same time. R: Horizontal velocity has no effect on motion in the vertical direction.

    A
    If both A and B are true and R is the correct explanation of A
    B
    If both A and R are true but R is not correct explantion of A
    C
    If A is true but R is false
    D
    If A is false but R is true
  • 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.

    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 both assertion and reason are false.

    A ball is thrown horizontally and at the same time another ball is dropped down from the top of a tower Will both the balls reach the ground at the same time ?

    A ball P is dropped vertically and another ball Q is thrown horizontally with the same velocities from the same height and at the same time. If air resistance is neglected, then

    Assertion : A body droped from a given height and another body projected horizontal from the same height strike the ground simultaneously Reason : Because horizontal velocity has no effect in the vertical direction .

    STATEMENT-1: A body is projected from the ground with a velocity v at an angle with the horizontal direction, it reaches a maximum height (H) and reaches the ground after a time T = 2u sin theta//g because STATEMENT-2: The vertical and horizontal motions can be treated independently

    Two projectiles thrown from the same point at angles 60^@ and 30^@ with the horizontal attain the same height. The ratio of their initial velocities is
