Physics-Circular Motion Dynamics

NEET Physics Circular Motion Dynamics Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 11

Assertion (A): The tension in the string provides the necessary centripetal force for a stone rotated in a circle. | Reason (R): In uniform circular motion, the centripetal force is always directed towards the center of the circle.

A

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false but R is true.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The assertion correctly identifies tension as the source of centripetal force for a stone in circular motion, and the reason accurately describes the direction of centripetal force, providing a valid explanation.
