Solution

The correct option is A True
In a physical change, no new substance is formed and the chemical composition of substance remains the same. There are changes in physical properties like shape, size, appearance, etc. In a chemical change, new substance is formed and the chemical composition of substance changes.
In cutting of a cloth no new substance is formed as the cloth is cut into two pieces only the size of cloth is changed. Hence, it is a physical change.
