B

Statement-I is true, Statement-II is true, Statement-II is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-I

C

Statement-I is true, Statement-II is false

D

Statement-I is false, Statement-II is true.

Text Solution

Statement-I : In a free fall, the initial velocity of a body may or may not be zero. Statement-II : A heavy body falls at a faster rate as compared to a light body.

Assertion: Rest of a body is a relative term. Reason: Motion of a body may be absolute term.

Assertion : A body can have acceleration even if its velocity is zero at a given instant of time. Reason : A body is momentarily at rest when it reverses its direction of motion.

Assertion : A needle placed carefully placed on the surface of water may float. Reason : When buoyant force balanced with weight of body, the body can float.

Assertion : An object may have varying speed without having varying velocity. Reason : If the velocity is zero at an instant, the acceleration may not be zero at that instant.

Assertion :- In equilibrium net force on the body is zero. Reason :- A body in equilibrium must be at rest.

Assertion: Displacement of a body may be zero when distance travelled by it is not zero. Reason: The displacement is the longest distance between initial and final position.

Assertion : All derived quantities may be represented dimensionally in terms of the base quantities. Reason : The dimensions of a base quantity in other base quantities are always zero.
