Q. These questions consist of two statement, each printed as assertion and reason. While answering these question you are required to choose any one of the following five responses.

Assertion : If a body is thrown upwards. the distance covered by it in the last second of upward motion is about 5 m irrespective of its initial speed .

Reason : The distance coveted in the last second of upward motion is equal to that covered in the first second of downward motion when the particle is dropped.

Work done on an object depends on the initial velocity of the object.
