Consider the statements given below and choose the correct option.

a) Assertion and reason both are correct statement and reason is


correct explanation for assertion.
b) Assertion and reason both are correct statement and reason is not
correct explanation for assertion.
c) Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
d) Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement

14. Assertion: A man is pushing a cart down a slope. Suddenly the cart
starts moving faster.
Reason: It accelerated due to both gravity and the force applied by the
man.
15. Assertion: The motion imparted to objects was due to the action of a
force.
Reason: In science, a push or a pull on an object is called a force.
16. Assertion: When the coin is held in your hand it is at rest. As soon as
it is released, it begins to move downwards. It is clear that the state of
motion of the coin undergoes a change.
Reason: Objects or things fall towards the earth because it pulls them.
This force is called the force of gravity, or just gravity

17. Assertion: Sharp knives are used to cut the vegetables.


Reason: Sharp edges exert more pressure.
