Assertion : We know the relation a = v. ...

Assertion : We know the relation `a = v. (dv)/ds` . Therefore, if velocity of a particle is zero, then acceleration is also zero.
Reason : In the above equation, a is the instantaneous acceleration.

A

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

B

If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

C

If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

If Assertion is false but the Reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

It is not necessary that if `v=0` then acceleration is
also zero. If a particle is thrown upwards, then at
highest point `v=0`but `!=0`

Give an example where the velocity of an object is zero but its acceleration is not zero.

When the velocity of a body executing shm is zero its acceleration is not zero. Why?

Statement-I : When velocity of a particle is zero then acceleration of particle is zero. Statement-II : Acceleration is equal to rate of change of velocity.

Assertion :- A particle having zero acceleration must have constant speed. Reason :- A Particle having constant speed must have zero acceleration.

Give examples where a. the velocity of a particle is zero but its acceleration is not zero. b.the velocity is opposite in direction to the acceleration, c. the velocity is perpendicular to the acceleration.

Assertion : For a particle, acceleration-time graph gives the velocity. Reason : Rate of change of velocity is acceleration.

If velocity of particle is given by v=2t^4 , then its acceleration ((dv)/(dt)) at any time t will be given by..

Assertion: If external force on a body is zero, its acceleration is zero. Reason: This is the simple from of Newton's second law of motion.

Mark the correct statements for a particle go ing on a straight line: (a) If the velocity and acceleration have opposite sign, the object is slowing down. (b) If the position and velocity have opposite sign, the particle is moving towards the origin. (c) If the velocity is zero at an instant, the acceleration should also be zero at that instant. (d) If the velocity is zero for a time interval, the acceleration is zero at any instant within the time interval.

Can a body have zero velocity and finite acceleration?
