The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided: **Assertion (A):** The area under the acceleration-time graph is equal to the velocity of the object. **Reason (R):** For an object moving with constant acceleration, the position-time graph is a straight line. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A):** - The assertion states that the area under the acceleration-time graph represents the velocity of the object. - According to physics, acceleration (a) is defined as the rate of change of velocity (v) with respect to time (t), which can be expressed mathematically as: \[ a = \frac{dv}{dt} \] - If we integrate acceleration with respect to time, we obtain: \[ \int a \, dt = v + C \] - The integral of acceleration over time gives us the change in velocity, which means the area under the acceleration-time graph indeed represents the change in velocity. Therefore, the assertion is **true**. 2. **Understanding the Reason (R):** - The reason states that for an object moving with constant acceleration, the position-time graph is a straight line. - However, this statement is incorrect. When an object is moving with constant acceleration, its velocity changes over time, and thus the position-time graph is not a straight line but a curve (specifically, a parabola). - The correct relationship is that if acceleration is constant, the velocity-time graph is a straight line, while the position-time graph is a quadratic curve. Therefore, the reason is **false**. 3. **Conclusion:** - Since the assertion is true and the reason is false, the correct option is: - **Option 3:** Assertion is true but reason is false. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **Option 3**. ---
