JEE Main & Advanced Physics Fluid Mechanics, Surface Tension & Viscosity / द्रव यांत्रिकी, भूतल तनाव और चिपचिपापन Question Bank Assertion and Reason

  • question_answer
    Assertion             :       The blood pressure in humans is greater at the feet than at the brain. Reason                 :       Pressure of liquid at any point is proportional to height, density of liquid and acceleration due to gravity.

    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: A

    Solution :

                Height of the blood column in the human body is more at feet than at the brain. \[\text{As }P=h\rho g\], therefore the blood exerts more pressure at the feet than at the brain.
