Answer:
HERE IS YOUR ANSWER DUDE
Explanation:
Assertion : The numerical ratio of displacement to distance is equal to one or less than one.
Reason : Displacement is a vector quantity and distance is a scalar quantity.
explanation : Displacement is the minimum separation between two points. it doesn't depend on path. This is because displacement is a vector quantity. it has direction. it can be found by the difference of final position to initial position.
distance is the length of path covered by a particle. it depends on path of particle. this is because distance is a scalar quantity. it doesn't have direction.
[so reason is correct]
in straight line path of a particle,
distance = displacement
in non linear path of a particle,
distance > displacement
from explanation of both terms it is clear that
|displacement| ≤ |distance |
⇒|displacement|/|distance| ≤ 1 [ so assertion is correct]
here assertion and reason both are correct also reason is correct explanation of assertion.
