1) Anoop Appeared In Class Test But He Confused To Know The Incorrect Statement. Would You Help Him To Know That?

While riding a cycle, we find that it is easier to move the bicycle forward if the wind is coming from our back side.

While rowing a boat in the lake, we find it easier to row the boat forward if the wind is coming from behind us.

Answer 2

The incorrect statement among the given statements is: If the wind blows in opposite direction to the motion of the object, it makes the movement of the object easier.

Explanation:

• It is easier to ride a bicycle forward if the wind is coming from the backside because in that case,  the direction of motion of the wind is the same as that of the motion of the bicycle. Therefore, the wind helps in moving forward.
• Similarly, it is easier to row a boat in the lake or fly a kite if the wind is coming from the backside.
• It means the movement of an object becomes easier if the direction of motion of the wind is the same as the direction of motion of the object.
• Therefore, the statement, 'If the wind blows in opposite direction to the motion of the object, it makes the movement of the object easier,' is incorrect.
