Q54 / 66 · JEE Advanced 2007 (Paper 2) · Physics

Statement I A cloth covers a table. Some dishes are kept on it. The cloth can be pulled out without dislodging the dishes from the table. Statement II For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

  • A
    Statement I is true, Statement II is true; Statement II is a correct explanation for Statement.
  • Correct answer
    B
    Statement I is true, Statement II is true; Statement II is NOT a correct explanation for Statement I
  • C
    Statement I is true, Statement II is false
  • D
    Statement I is false, Statement II is true

Solution

The cloth can be pulled out without dislodging the dishes from the table due to law of inertia, which is Newton's first law. While the Statement II is true, but it is Newton's third law. $\therefore$ Correct option is (b).

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
