Question 5
Paheli moves on a straight road from point A to point C. She takes 20 minutes to cover a certain distance AB and 30 minutes to cover the rest of distance BC. She then turns back and takes 30 minutes to cover the distance CB and 20 minutes to cover the rest of the distance to her starting point. She makes 5 rounds on the road the same way. Paheli concludes that her motion is

DIRECTIONS: Each of these questions contains an Assertion followed by Reason. Read them carefully and answer the question on the basis of the following options. You have to select the one that best describes the two statements.
Assertion : Motion of moon around earth is a non-uniform motion.
Reason : The size of moon is smaller than that of earth.
If both Assertion and Reason are correet and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
If Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
If Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
