Question

Assertion - When astronauts throw something in space that object will continue moving in the same direction and with the same speed.
Reason - The acceleration of an object produced by a net applied force is directly propotional to the magnitude of force and inversely related to the mass of the object.​

Answer 1

Both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) is correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

Explanation:

• As we know F= ma
• The acceleration of an object would be the weight of the object in this scenario.
• As we know that the weight is the gravity of the object or acceleration due to gravity.
• In space, there is no gravity hence the object will not moves towards gravity. It will move with the same speed in the same direction.

Answer 2

Answer:

both assersion and reson are correct
