Assertion : An object may have varying speed without having varying velocity.
Reason : If the velocity is zero at an instant, the acceleration may not be zero at that instant.

A

If both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason in 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:
D

If speed varies, then velocity will definitely vary. When a particle is thrown upwards, at highest point
`a ne 0` but `upsilon = 0`.

    An object may have (a). Varying speed without having varying velocity (b). Varying velocity without having verying speed (c). Non zero acceleration without having varying velocity (d). Non zero acceleration without having varying speed.

    Can a body have zero velocity and finite acceleration?

    Assertion : The accelerated motion of an object may be due to change in magnitude of velocity or direction of velocity or both. Reason : Acceleration can be produed only by change in the magnitude of the velocity.

    Assertion : An object may have acceleration even if it is moving with uniform velocity Reason : An object may be moving with uniform velocity but it may be changing its direction of motion

    Assertion (A): A body may have velocity and displacement in the opposite directions. Reason (R): Velocity is distance travelled by the body in a unit time.
