Assertion (A), If the speed of a car moving towards the east is ` 20 ms^(-1)` , its velcoity is `20 m s^(-1)` towards the east.
Reason ( R): The velocity of a body is spend in a specified direaction.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true, but is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

Both A and R are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Velocity has both magnitude and direction. Its magnitude gives speed. Hence, both the statements are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
