Question

Assertion (A): The principle of science, not rule of thumb says that we should not get stuck in a set routine rather the method of doing work should be based on trial-and-error method.

Reason (R): The principle of science, not rule of thumb, makes the work much simpler, easier and quicker.

पर्याय

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Assertion (A) is True but Reason (R) is False.

• Assertion (A) is False but Reason (R) is True.

Answer 1

Assertion (A) is False but Reason (R) is True.

Explanation:

• Assertion (A) is False because the principle of Science, not rule of thumb does not suggest using trial-and-error methods. Instead, it suggests using scientific methods, time studies, standardization, and research to determine the best way of doing work. Trial-and-error is not scientific; it is a hit-and-miss approach.
• Reason (R) is True because the principle of Science, not rule of thumb helps in simplifying, standardizing, and making work easier, quicker, and more efficient.
