NEET Physics Newton's Laws Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): A body continues to be in its state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.
Reason (R): The state of rest or uniform linear motion implies zero acceleration.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The assertion is Newton's First Law of Motion, which describes inertia. The reason correctly explains that zero acceleration corresponds to a state of rest or uniform motion, as derived from Galileo's concept.
