Analyzing +4 | -1

Assertion

[A]

: A boy feels more pain when he falls down on a hard concrete floor than when he falls on the sand floor

Reason

[R]

: Every action has equal and opposite reaction. The time of impact of cement floor is smaller compared to that of sand floor

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

[A]

and

[R]

are true and

[R]

is correct explanation of

[{A}]

Option A ([A] and [R] are true and [R] is correct explanation of [{A}]) is correct because both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason correctly explains why the boy feels more pain on a hard floor.

A machine gun has a mass

5 {~kg}

. It fires 50 gram bullets at the rate of 30 bullets per minute at a speed of

400 {~ms}^{-1}

. What force is required to keep the gun in position? A particle of mass

4 {~m}

which is at rest explodes into three fragments. Two of the fragments each of mass

m

are found to move with a speed of

v

each in mutually perpendicular direction. The total energy released in the process is A block of mass ‘m’ rests on a rough inclined plane making an angle

30^\circ

with the horizontal. The co-efficient of static friction between the block and the plane is 0.8. If force of friction on the block is 10 N, the mass of the block is

\left( {g = 10\,m{s^{ - 2}}} \right).

Statement-1: A shell at the origin explodes into three pieces of masses

1 \mathrm{~kg}, 2 \mathrm{~kg}

and

m \mathrm{~kg}

. The

1 \mathrm{~kg}

and

2 \mathrm{~kg}

pieces fly off with speeds

12 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

along the

x

-axis and

8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

along the

y

-axis respectively. If

{m} \,\mathrm{kg}

piece flies off with speed

40 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}

, the total mass of the shell must be

3.5 \mathrm{~kg}

.
Statement-2: The law of conservation of linear momentum holds good. For a system to follow the law of conservation of linear momentum during a collision , the condition is
Total external force acting on the system is zero.
Total external force acting on the system finite and time of collision is negligible.
Total internal force acting on the system is zero. If force on a rocket having exhaust velocity of

300 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{sec}

is 210 N, then rate of combustion of the fuel is:
