The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Understand the Assertion** - The assertion states that "In a freely falling liquid container, upthrust force is zero." - Upthrust (or buoyant force) is the force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an object submerged in it. **Step 2: Analyze the Condition of Free Fall** - In a freely falling container, both the container and the liquid inside it are accelerating downwards due to gravity. - This means that everything inside the container, including the liquid, experiences the same acceleration (g). **Step 3: Evaluate the Upthrust Force** - The upthrust force is given by the formula: \[ \text{Upthrust} = V \cdot \rho \cdot g \] where \( V \) is the volume of the displaced fluid, \( \rho \) is the density of the fluid, and \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity. - In a freely falling container, while \( V \) and \( \rho \) are not zero, the effective value of \( g \) is effectively zero because the container and the liquid are in free fall together. **Step 4: Understand the Reason** - The reason states that "In freely falling case, the effective value of g is zero." - This is true because, in free fall, the gravitational force does not create any net force acting on the liquid in the container, making it feel weightless. **Step 5: Conclusion** - Since both the assertion and the reason are correct, and the reason correctly explains the assertion, we conclude that: - Both the assertion and reason are correct, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and reason are correct, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. ---
