Assertion : A lift is ascending with decreasing speed means acceleration of lift is downwards.
Reason : A body always moves in the direction of its acceleration.

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:
C
Ascending means velocity is in upwards direction. Speed is decreasing. It means acceleration is downwards. Further, the body moves in the direction of velocity.

"A lift is ascending with decreasing speed". What are the directions of velocity and acceleration of the lift at the given instant.

A lift is moving in upward direction with speed 20m//s and having acceleration 5m//s^2 in downward direction. A bolt drops from the ceiling of lift at that moment. Just after the drop, the:

Assertion: A body moving with constant acceleration always travels equal distance in equal time intervals. Reason: Motion of the body with constant acceleration is a uniform motion.

A : A body moving with decreasing speed may have increasing acceleration. R : The speed of body decreases, when acceleration of body is opposite to velocity.

A lift is asecending with a constnat speed ''V''. A passenger in the lift drops a coin. The acceleration of the coin towards the floor will be .

Assertion : Speed of a particle may decrease, even if acceleration is increasing. Reason: This will happen if acceleration is positive.

Assertion :- A particle has positive acceleration it means that its speed always increases. Reason :- Acceleration is the rate of change of speed with respect to time.
