Assertion : A particle moves in a straight line with constant acceleration. The average velocity of this particle cannot be zero in any time interval.
Reason : For a particle moving in straight line with variable acceleration, the average velocity in a time interval is where and are initial and final velocity of the particle in the given time interval.


Important Questions on Kinematics

Assertion : Retardation is directly opposite to the velocity.
Reason : Retardation is equal to the time rate of decrease of speed.

Assertion : If separation between two particles does not change then their relative velocity, will be zero.
Reason : Relative velocity is the rate of change of velocity of one particle w.r.t. another.

Assertion : If speed of two particles is increasing at the same rate then their relative velocity will be constant.
Reason : If the acceleration vector of the two particles is same then their relative acceleration will be non-zero.
