  • Assertion: If a body is momentarily at rest, it means that force or acceleration are necessarily zero at that instant. Reason: Force on a body at a given time is determined by the direction of motin only.

    Assertion : A body is momentarily at rest at the instant it reverses the direction. Reason : A body cannot have acceleration if its velocity is zero at a given instant of time.

    Assertion: A body moving with constant acceleration always travels equal distance in equal time intervals. Reason: Motion of the body with constant acceleration is a uniform motion.

    Assertion: When a body accelerates down an incline rolling purely. Static friction force acts on the body. Reason: Point of contact of the body with incline remains at rest.

    Assertion: A negative acceleration of a body can be associated with a 'speeding up' of the body. Reason: Increase in speed of a moving body is independent of its direction of motion.

    Which quantity, speed or velocity gives the direction of motion of a body?

    Assertion : If the earth stops rotating about its axis, the value of the weight of the body at equator will decrease. Reason : The centripetal force does not act on the body at the equator.

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