Assertion : ‘Light year’ and ‘Wavelength’ both measure distance.
Reason : Both have dimensions of time.
Assertion : Light year and year, both measure time.
Reason : Because light year is the time that light takes to reach the earth from the sun.
Assertion : Force cannot be added to pressure.
Reason : Because their dimensions are different.
Assertion : Linear mass density has the dimensions of .
Reason : Because density is always mass per unit volume.
Assertion : Rate of flow of a liquid is defined as volume of liquid flowing per second.
Reason : The dimensions of rate of flow are .
Assertion: Units of Rydberg constant R are m-1
Reason: It follows from Bohr’s formula , where the symbols have their usual meaning.
Assertion : Parallex method cannot be used for measuring distances of stars more than 100 light years away.
Reason : Because parallex angle reduces so much that it cannot be measured accurately.
Assertion : Number of significant figures in 0.005 is one and that in 0.500 is three.
Reason : This is because zeros are not significant.
Assertion (A): | Out of three measurements \(l=0.7\) m; \(l=0.70\) m and \(l=0.700\) m, the last one is most accurate. |
Reason (R): | In every measurement, only the last significant digit is not accurately known. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
Assertion: Mass, length and time are fundamental physical quantities.
Reason: They are independent of each other.
