Assetion :when a bullet is fired from a gun the bullet preces a wooden block and stops changing the temperature of the bullte and the surrounding layers opf ood.
Reason : Temperature is related to the energy of motion of the bullet as a whole.

A

If both assetion and reason are true and reaasons is the correct expanation of assetion

B

If both assetion and reason are tur but reason is not the correct explanation of assetion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
When the bullet pierces a wooden block and stops , kinetic energy of the bullet gets converted in to heat. Due to this , the temperature of the wood and the surrounding layers of wood increases .Temperature is related to the energy of the internal motion of the bullet not to the motion of the bullet as a whole.
