Q.
What is the net force acting on a body of mass m, moving with an acceleration a?
Q.
Assertion :When external force acting on a body moving on a rough horizontal surface is doubled, the acceleration of the body is doubled. Reason: The acceleration of a body moving on a rough horizontal surface is proportional to the resultant force acting on it.
Q.
Assertion :If the net external force acting on the body is zero, then its acceleration is zero. Reason: Acceleration of a body does not depend on the forces acting on it.
Q.
If the net force acting on a rigid body is zero it implies that body can't have angular acceleration.
