Assertion (A) : Speed of a particle moving in a circle varies with time as, . Such type of circular motion is not possible.
Reason (R) : Speed cannot change linearly with time.
Reason (R) : Speed cannot change linearly with time.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
If Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.
Option C is correct because the assertion is true, as the given equation implies non-uniform circular motion, which is possible. However, the reason is false because speed can change linearly with time.

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
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 is zero, all particles must be at rest, implying zero linear momentum, but zero linear momentum doesn't necessitate zero kinetic energy.
