Assertion : When a vehicle takes a tur...

Assertion : When a vehicle takes a turn on the road, it travels along a nearly circular path.
Reason : In circular motion, velocity of vehicle remains same.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
In circular motion the frictional force acting towards the centre of the horizontal circular path provides the centripetal force and avoid overturning of vehicle. Due to the change in direction of motion, velocity changes in circular motion.
