Assertion: Aeroplanes are made to run on...

Assertion: Aeroplanes are made to run on the runway before take off, so that they acquire the necessary lift.
Reason: This is as per Bernoulli's theorem.

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 and reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Usually the air does not strike the wings os the aeroplane with large velocity. To get the lift, the aeroplane runs for some distance on the runway before taking off. Due to the special shape of wings, the velocity of the layers of air above the wings increases and hence pressure decreases. Due to this aeroplane get uplift.

Assertion: Aeroplanes are made to run on the runway before take off, so that they acquire the necessary lift. Reason: This is as per Bernoulli's theroem.

Assertion : Aeroplanes are made to run on the runway before take off, so that they acquire the necessary lift. Reason : According to Bernoulli's theorem, as velocity increases pressure decreases and viceversa.

An aeroplane runs for some distance on the run way before taking off. Why?

Assertion: An ideal fluid is flowing through a pipe. Speed of fluid particles is more at places where pressure is low. Reason: Bernoulli's theoren can be derived from work-energy theorem.

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 : Two row boats moving parallel to one another are pulled towards one another. STATEMENT-2 : When the boats are close to each other, the velocity of water between them increases and pressure falls according to Bernoull's theorem.

A jet plane starts from rest with an acceleration of 3 ms^(-2) and makes a run for 35 s before taking off. What is the minimum length of the runway and what is the velocity of the jet at take off ?
