Assertion : Rate of flow of a liquid is defined as volume of liquid flowing per second.
Reason : The dimensions of rate of flow are .
Assertion: Units of Rydberg constant R are m-1
Reason: It follows from Bohr’s formula , where the symbols have their usual meaning.
Assertion : Parallex method cannot be used for measuring distances of stars more than 100 light years away.
Reason : Because parallex angle reduces so much that it cannot be measured accurately.
Assertion : Number of significant figures in 0.005 is one and that in 0.500 is three.
Reason : This is because zeros are not significant.
Assertion: Out of three measurements l = 0.7 m; l = 0.70 m and l = 0.700 m, the last one is most accurate.
Reason: In every measurement, only the last significant digit is not accurately known.
Assertion: Mass, length and time are fundamental physical quantities.
Reason: They are independent of each other.
Assertion : Density is a derived physical quantity.
Reason : Density cannot be derived from the fundamental physical quantities.
Assertion: Nowadays a standard metre is defined in terms of the wavelength of light.
Reason: Light has no relation with length.
Assertion: Surface tension and surface energy have the same dimensions.
Reason: Because both have the same S.I. unit
Assertion : In is dimensionless.
Reason : Because dimension of
