Statement-1 : The relative velocity between any two bodies moving in opposite direction is equal to sum of the velocities of two bodies. Statement-2 : Sometimes relative velocity between two bodies is equal to difference in velocities of the two.

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:
B

When two bodies are moving in opposite direction, relative velocity is sum of the velocity of bodies. But if bodies are moving in same direction, their relative velocity is equal to difference in velocity of the bodies.
