Laws Of Motion Question 14

Question: Assertion: Mass is a measure of inertia of the body in linear motion. Reason: Greater the mass, greater is the force required to change its state of rest or of uniform motion.

Options:

A) If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C) If assertion is true but reason is false.

D) If the assertion and reason both are false.

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

According to Newton’s second law of motion $ a=\frac{F}{m} $ i.e. magnitude of the acceleration produced by a given force is inversely proportional to the mass of the body. Higher is the mass of the body, lesser will be the acceleration produced i.e. mass of the body is a measure of the opposition offered by the body to change a state, when the force is applied i.e. mass of a body is the measure of its inertia.
