Assertion (A) : If the elevator goes down with constant acceleration, then frequency of oscillation of spring block system in elevator will be independent of acceleration of elevator.
Reason (R) : If the given elevator moves with uniform velocity, then the frequency of oscillation will change.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

A is true, R is false

The assertion is true because the frequency of a spring-block system depends only on the spring constant and mass, not the elevator's acceleration. The reason is false because uniform velocity doesn't affect the frequency.
