Case
Case II :
From (1) and (2)
Assertion A states that steel is used in the construction of buildings and bridges, which is true.
Steel is a widely used material for construction due to its high strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion.
Reason R states that steel is more elastic and has a higher elastic limit compared to other common construction materials like concrete, and this is why it is preferred in construction.
This statement is also true.
Steel's high elasticity and high elastic limit make it an ideal material for use in construction as it can withstand greater stress before it becomes permanently deformed.
Therefore, both Assertion A and Reason R are true statements.
However, to determine the most appropriate answer, we need to see if Reason R explains Assertion A.
Reason R does indeed explain why steel is used in the construction of buildings and bridges.
Its high elasticity and high elastic limit allow it to withstand greater stress than other common construction materials before becoming permanently deformed, making it a preferred material for construction.
So, the correct answer is Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Elongation in wire
Let be the cross-sectional area of the first wire, and let be its Young's modulus.
The strain in the wire is given by , where is the increase in length.
The stress in the wire is given by .
According to Hooke's law, the stress is proportional to the strain, so we have .
Solving for , we get .
The second wire has twice the length and four times the cross-sectional area of the first wire, so its cross-sectional area is and its Young's modulus is still .
When a force of is applied to this wire, the stress in the wire is .
Using Hooke's law again, we have .
Solving for , we get .
The increase in length of the second wire is given by .
Substituting the expression for that we derived earlier, we get .
Therefore, the increase in length of the second wire is the same as the increase in length of the first wire, which is .
The terminal velocity
of a spherical body falling through a viscous fluid is given by Stokes' Law, which states that:
where: is the density of the sphere is the density of the fluid is the acceleration due to gravity is the radius of the sphere is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid As per Stokes' Law, the terminal velocity is proportional to the square of the radius of the sphere (since the radius term
is in the numerator).
Note that Reason R states that the terminal velocity is "inversely proportional" to its radius, which is contrary to the relationship presented by Stokes' Law.
Therefore, Reason R is false.
Moving on to Assertion A, we can consider the percentage error in the radius to determine the percentage error in the terminal velocity.
If the radius
has an error of
at
, then the relative error in the radius is:
Since the terminal velocity varies with the square of the radius, the percentage error in the terminal velocity would be twice the percentage error in the radius.
This is in agreement with Assertion A, making it true.
Given this analysis, the correct statement is: Option B: A is true but
is false.
