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

Statement I: A body can have acceleration even if its velcity is zero at a given instant . Statement II: A body is momentarily at rest when it reverses its direction of velocity.

Can a body have acceleration without having velocity?

STATEMENT - 1 : If the body is moving in the opposite direction of positive motion, then its speed is negative. STATEMENT - 2 : A scalar quantity is one that must be dimensionless. STATEMENT - 3 : A body is momentarily at rest when it reverse its direction of motion.

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 may be accelerated even when it is moving at uniform speed. (Reason) : When direction of motion of the body is changing then body may have acceleration.

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.

Asserion : The acceleration of an object at a particular time is the slope of the velocity-time graph at that instant of time. Reason : For uniform motion acceleration is zero.

Assertion : A body can be at rest even when it is under the action of may number of external forces Reason : Because vector sum of the all external forces is zero .

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.
