Assertion & Reasoning
- Assertion: The value of ‘g’ decreases as height and depth increase from the surface of the Earth.
- Reason: ‘g’ depends on the mass of the object and the Earth.
Two bodies have a mass ratio of 3:4 The force applied on the bigger mass produces an acceleration of 12 ms-2. What could be the acceleration of the other body, if the same force acts on it.
