Assertion Particle-1 is dropped from a t...

Assertion Particle-1 is dropped from a tower and particle-2 is projected horizontal from the same tower. Then both the particles reach the ground simultaneously.
Reason Both are particles strike the ground with different speeds.

A

If both Asseration and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion

B

If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion

C

If Assertion is true but Reason is false

D

If Assertion is false but Reason is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`t_(1) = t_(2) = sqrt((2h)/(g))` (h = height of tower)
`v_(1) = sqrt(2gh)`
While `v_(2) = sqrt(v_(1)^(2)+v_(0)^(2)) (v_(0)=` initial horizontal velocity)
Therefore, both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
