NEET Physics Relative Motion Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The relative velocity of object A with respect to object B is given by the vector difference of their velocities with respect to a common frame of reference.
Reason (R): Relative velocity is the velocity of one object as observed from another object and is calculated by subtracting the velocity vector of the observing object from the velocity vector of the observed object.
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.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The assertion and reason both correctly describe the concept of relative velocity, where the velocity of object A relative to B is the difference of their velocities as vectors, as described in the NCERT context.
