JEE Main & Advanced Physics Work, Energy, Power & Collision / कार्य, ऊर्जा और शक्ति Question Bank Assertion and Reason

  • question_answer
    Assertion          :           In an elastic collision of two bodies, the momentum and energy of each body is conserved. Reason            :           If two bodies stick to each other, after colliding, the collision is said to be perfectly elastic.

    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.

    E)             If assertion is false but reason is true.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                In an elastic collision both the momentum and kinetic energy remains conserved. But this rule is not for individual bodies, but for the system of bodies before and after the collision. While collision in which there occurs some loss of kinetic energy is called inelastic collision. Collision in daily life are generally inelastic. The collision is said to be perfectly inelastic, if two bodies stick to each other.
