Nos 13 to 16 : Two statements are given-one labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes (a), (b), (c) and (d) as given below. t a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A b) Both A and R are true and R is NOT the correct explanation of A c) A is true but R is false 4) A is false and R is also false 13) Assertion (A): When a particle moves in a circular path with a uniform speed, its velocity and acceleration both changes. Reason (R): The centripetal acceleration in circular motion is dependent on angular velocity of the body. 14) Assertion (A): The work done in moving a body over a closed loop is zero for every force in nature, Reason(R) : Work done depends only on magnitude of the force. 15) Assertion (A): Mass is a measure of inertia of the body in linear motion. Reason(R) : Greater the mass, greater is the force required to change its state of rest or of uniform motion. 16) Assertion (A); If earth shrink (without change in mass) to half its present size. Length of the day would become 6 hours. Reason(R): As size of earth changes its moment of inertia and angular speed changes. SECTION B 1) ‘The mass of a box measured by a grocer’s balance is 2.3 kg.
