Question:
Which one of the following statements for second law of motion is NOT correct?
Which one of the following statements for second law of motion is NOT correct?
Options:
- The net force on a body is proportional to that body’s acceleration
- The net force on a body is in the same direction as the acceleration
- The time rate of change of momentum is equal to force
- The net force on a body is proportional to that body’s momentum
- The net force on a body is proportional to that body’s acceleration
- The net force on a body is in the same direction as the acceleration
- The time rate of change of momentum is equal to force
- The net force on a body is proportional to that body’s momentum
Correct Answer: The net force on a body is proportional to that body’s momentum
Explanation:
As per second law of motion; force is proportional to rate of change of momentum not on momentum. Hence option (d) is incorrect.
As per second law of motion; force is proportional to rate of change of momentum not on momentum. Hence option (d) is incorrect.
