Assertion: A cricketer moves his hands forward to catch a ball so as to catch it easily without hurting.
Reason: He tries to decrease the distance travelled by the ball so that it hurts less.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Assertion is incorrect, reason is correct.
Option C is correct because the assertion is correct, but the reason is incorrect. A cricketer moves his hands backward to increase the time of impact, not to decrease the distance.

STATEMENT-1 : A block of mass mm starts moving on a rough horizontal surface with a velocity vv. It stops due to friction between the block and the surface after moving through a certain distance. The surface is now tilted to an angle of 30∘30^{\circ} with the horizontal and the same block is made to go up on the surface with the same initial velocity vv. The decrease in the mechanical energy in the second situation is smaller than that in the first situation.

STATEMENT-2 : The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface decreases with the increase in the angle of inclination.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False
Option C (Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False) is correct because the decrease in mechanical energy is greater in the first situation, and the coefficient of friction does not depend on the angle of inclination.

A car is moving with a uniform speed on a level road. Inside the car there is a balloon filled with helium and attached to a piece of string tied to the floor. The string is observed to be vertical. The car now takes a left turn maintaining the speed on the level road. The balloon in the car will (Here the car is supposed to be air tight)
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Be thrown to the left side.
The balloon will be thrown to the left side because the air inside the car will experience a pseudo force to the right, causing the lighter helium balloon to move in the opposite direction (to the left).

Consider the following two statements
I. Linear momentum of a system of particles is zero.
II. Kinetic energy of a system of particles is zero. Then
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
I implies II and II implies I
Option D (I does not imply II but II implies I) is correct because if the kinetic energy of a system of particles is zero, all particles must be at rest, implying zero linear momentum. However, zero linear momentum does not necessarily imply zero kinetic energy, as particles could have momenta that sum to zero while still moving.

Assertion: On a roundabout, every portion of our body is subjected to an inward force.
Reason: Our body feels a push outward in the direction of impending motion.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
Option B is correct because both the assertion and the reason are true, but the reason doesn't correctly explain why every part of the body experiences an inward force on a roundabout. The inward force is due to centripetal force, not an outward push.
