Statement-1 : During the oscillations of...

Statement-1 `:` During the oscillations of a simple pendulum, the direction of its acceleration at the mean position is directed towards the point of suspension and at extreme position is direction towards the mean position .
Statement-2 `:` The directio of acceleration of a simple pendulum at an instant is decided by the tangential and radial components of weight at that instant.

A

Statement-I is true, Statement-Ii is true, Statement-II is a correct explanation for Statement-I.

B

Statement-I is true, Statement-II is true, Statement-II is NOT a correct explanantion for Statement-I.

C

Statement-I is true, Statement-II is false

D

Statement-I is false, Statement-II is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Tangent component of weight `=mg sin theta`
Radial component of weight `= mg cos theta` at mean position, radial present at exterme position, tangent present.
