JEE Main & Advanced Physics Gravitation / गुरुत्वाकर्षण Question Bank Assertion and Reason

  • question_answer
    Assertion          :           There is no effect of rotation of earth on acceleration due to gravity at poles. Reason            :           Rotation of earth is about polar axis.       

    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 :

        As the rotation of earth takes place about polar axis therefore body placed at poles will not feel any centrifugal force and its weight or acceleration due to gravity remains unaffected.
