Assertion : Inside parts of machine are ...

Assertion : Inside parts of machine are jammed in winter .
Reason : The viscosity of lubricant used in machine parts increase at low temperature.

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

Viscosity of fluids is markedly dependent on temperature, increasing for gases and decreasing for liquids as the temperature is increased. Thus important consideration in the design of oils for engine lubrication is to reduce the temperature variation of viscosity as much as possible.
