Dear student,
It is given that :
- Assertion : A labour intends to move a wooden cabinet across a floor at a constant velocity with a horizontal force of 200 N and the friction force is also exerted on the cabinet.
- Reason : Frictional forces act opposite to the direction of motion due to which it slows down.
From the above assertion and reason, it is clear that no doubt both the statements are true. But, when carefully observed, it can be found that reason has no relevance with the explanation of assertion.
Hence, both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
