Assertion: The time taken by a boat to cover a certain distance upstream is more than the time taken to cover the same distance downstream.

Reason: The speed of the boat is lesser while moving upstream as compared to downstream due to the speed of the stream.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion

Option A (Both the Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion) is correct because the boat's speed is reduced upstream due to the stream's opposing force, increasing the time taken to cover the distance.

\mathrm{\vec P} = \mathrm{\vec A} + \mathrm{\vec B}\,\,\mathrm{and}\,P = A + B.

The angle between

\mathrm{\vec A}\,and\,\mathrm{\vec B}

is Assertion: The necessary condition for motion in two dimensions, velocity and acceleration vectors should have any angle between

0^{\circ}

90^{\circ}

between them.
Reason: For two-dimensional or three-dimensional motion, velocity and acceleration of an object works in opposite direction.

\mathrm{If}\,(\mathbf{a}+3 \mathbf{b}) \cdot(7 \mathbf{a}-5 \mathbf{b})=0

(\mathbf{a}-4 \mathbf{b}) \cdot(7 \mathbf{a}-2 \mathbf{b})=0

. Then, the angle between

is At the top of the trajectory of a projectile, the direction of its velocity and acceleration are A ball is thrown at an angle

\theta

and another ball is thrown at an angle

\left(90^{\circ}-\theta\right)

with the horizontal direction from the same point with velocity

39.2 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}

. The second ball reaches

50 \mathrm{~m}

higher than the first ball. Find their individual heights. Take

{g}=9.8 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}

. Assertion: The drover in a vehicle moving with a constant speed on a straight road is in a non-inertial frame of reference.

Reason: A reference frame in which Newton's laws of motion are applicable is non-inertial.
