Physics Systems of Particles and Rotational Motion JEE Main

Statement 1: In case of a bullet fired from a gun, the ratio of the kinetic energy of the gun and the bullet is equal to the ratio of the mass of the bullet and the gun. Statement 2: In firing, momentum is conserved.

(A)Assertion is True, Reason is True; Reason is correct explanation for AssertionCorrect
(B)Assertion is True, Reason is True; Reason is not correct explanation for Assertion
(C)Assertion is True, Reason is False
(D)Assertion is False, Reason is True

Answer: (A)
