The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states that "Newton's second law of motion gives the measurement of force." - According to Newton's second law, the force acting on an object is equal to the rate of change of momentum of that object. This can be mathematically expressed as: \[ F = \frac{dp}{dt} \] where \( F \) is the force, \( p \) is the momentum, and \( t \) is time. This means that force can indeed be measured using the change in momentum over time. ### Step 2: Understand the Reason The reason states that "According to Newton's second law of motion, force is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum." - This is a direct application of the second law. It states that if the momentum of an object changes, then a force must be acting on it, and the magnitude of that force is proportional to how quickly the momentum is changing. ### Step 3: Evaluate the Truth of Both Statements - Both the assertion and the reason are true. The assertion correctly identifies that Newton's second law provides a way to measure force, and the reason accurately describes the relationship between force and momentum change. ### Step 4: Determine the Relationship Between Assertion and Reason - Since the reason provides a correct explanation for the assertion, we conclude that both statements are true, and the reason is indeed the correct explanation for the assertion. ### Conclusion Thus, the answer to the question is that both the assertion and the reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion. ---
