Assertion :- Newton's first law defines inertial frame of reference. Reason :- Newton's laws can be applied only in inertial frames of reference.

Assertion :- A particle on earth found to be at rest when seen from a frame U_(1) and moving with a constant velocity when seen from another frame U_(2) . Then both frames may be non - inertial. Reason :- A reference frame attached to the earth must be an inertial frame.

A frame of reference that is accelerated with respect to an inertial frame of reference is called a non-inertial frame of reference. A coordinate system fixed on a circular disc rotating about a fixed axis with a constant angular velocity omega is an example of non=inertial frame of reference. The relationship between the force vecF_(rot) experienced by a particle of mass m moving on the rotating disc and the force vecF_(in) experienced by the particle in an inertial frame of reference is vecF_(rot)=vecF_(i n)+2m(vecv_(rot)xxvec omega)+m(vec omegaxx vec r)xxvec omega . where vecv_(rot) is the velocity of the particle in the rotating frame of reference and vecr is the position vector of the particle with respect to the centre of the disc. Now consider a smooth slot along a diameter fo a disc of radius R rotating counter-clockwise with a constant angular speed omega about its vertical axis through its center. We assign a coordinate system with the origin at the center of the disc, the x-axis along the slot, the y-axis perpendicular to the slot and the z-axis along the rotation axis (vecomega=omegahatk) . A small block of mass m is gently placed in the slot at vecr(R//2)hati at t=0 and is constrained to move only along the slot. The distance r of the block at time is

A frame will be inertial, if it moves with respect to another inertial frame with a constant :-

Assertion :- To observe the motion of planets, the sun may be assumed to be an inertial frame. Reason :- For practical purpose a frame of reference may be considered as inertial if it’s acceleration is negligible w.r.t. the acceleration of the object to be observed.

Assertion: Pseudo force is an imaginary force which is recongnised only by a non-inertial observer to explain the physical situation according to newton's laws. Reason: Pseudo force has no physical origin, that is it is not caused by one of the basic interactions in nature. It does not exist in the action-reaction pair.

Assertion: A body,whatever its motion, is always at rest in a frame of reference which is fixed to the body itself. Reason: The relative velocity of a body with respect to itself is zero.

When a particle is undergoing motion, the diplacement of the particle has a magnitude that is equal to or smaller than the total distance travelled by the particle. In many cases the displacement of the particle may actually be zero, while the distance travelled by it is non-zero. Both these quantities, however depend on the frame of reference in which motion of the particle is being observed. Consider a particle which is projected in the earth's gravitational field, close to its surface, with a speed of 100sqrt(2) m//s , at an angle of 45^(@) with the horizontal in the eastward direction. Ignore air resistance and assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 10 m//s^(2) . The motion of the particle is observed in two different frames: one in the ground frame (A) and another frame (B), in which the horizontal component of the displacement is always zero. Two observers locates in these frames ill agree on :-

Consider an observer in frame D (of the previous question), who observes a body of mass 10 kg acelerating in the upward direction at 30 m//s^(2) (w.r.t. himself). The net force acting on this body, as observed from the ground is :-
