Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : All simple harmonic motion are periodic.
Reason (R) : Periodic motion is the motion in which the particle repeats its motion in a fixed time internal.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Options
- ABoth (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
- BBoth (A) and (R) are true and (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A).
- C(A) is true but (R) is false.
- D(A) is false but (R) is true.
Correct answer
A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
Step-by-step solution
- Assertion (A): All simple harmonic motions (SHM) are periodic. This is true because SHM is a type of periodic motion where the particle oscillates back and forth in a regular, repeating pattern.
- Reason (R): Periodic motion is the motion in which the particle repeats its motion in a fixed time interval. This is also true because the definition of periodic motion involves repeating the motion at regular intervals.
