Statement I : Two objects moving with velocities and in the opposite directions, have their relative velocity along the direction of the one with a larger velocity.
Statement II : The relative velocity between two bodies moving with velocity and in same direction is given by
Statement II : The relative velocity between two bodies moving with velocity and in same direction is given by
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Statement I is false, Statement II is true
Statement I is false, Statement II is true. Statement I is incorrect because the relative velocity's direction depends on the vector difference, not just the larger velocity. Statement II correctly defines relative velocity.

A body is thrown vertically upwards. If air resistance is to be taken into account, then the time during which the body rises is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Less than the time of fall

A train is moving slowly on a straight track with a constant speed of . A passenger in that train starts walking at a steady speed of to the back of the train in the opposite direction of the motion of the train. So, to an observer standing on the platform directly in front of that passenger, the velocity of the passenger appears to be

Correct option: A
0
Option A (0) is correct because the passenger's velocity relative to the platform is the train's velocity minus the passenger's walking velocity, resulting in zero.

Reason: Sometimes relative velocity between two bodies is equal to difference in velocities of the two.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
Option B (If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion) is correct. The assertion is true because relative velocity in opposite directions is the sum of velocities. The reason is also true because relative velocity can be the difference in velocities when moving in the same direction, but the reason doesn't explain the assertion.
