Assertion (A) A particle of mass m dropped into a hole made along the daimeter of the earth from onr end to the other and passess simple harmonic motion .
Reason (R) Gravitational force between any two particle is inversely proportianal to the sqaure o fthe distance between them .

A

Both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is the correct explanation of (A)

B

Both (A) and (R ) are true but (R ) is not the correct explanation of (A)

C

(A) is true but (R ) is false

D

(A) is false but (R ) is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

As the particle moves into and from motion it executes S.H.M and F`alpha = ((GM_1)(m_2))/r^2`
