Assertion : A body can have acceleration...

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

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:
A
When body going vertically upward, reaches at the highest point, then it is momentarily at rest and it then reverses its direction. At the highest point of motion, its velocity is zero but its acceleration is equal to g (acceleration due to gravity).

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.

The acceleration of a body is zero, what is the nature of its distance-time graph ?

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 having non zero acceleration can have a constant velocity. Reason: Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

Assertion : A body may be accelerated even when it is moving uniformly. Reason : When direction of motion of the body is changing then body may have acceleration

Can the motion of a body be accelerated even when it is moving unifromly ?
