It is known that
ω=T2π⇒ω∝T1
As,
Tmoon ≈27 days
Tearth ≈365 days
⇒ωmoon >ωearth
Hence, Both the assertion and the reason are correct and the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion.
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : The angular speed of the moon in its orbit about the earth is more than the angular speed of the earth in its orbit about the sun.
Reason (R): The moon takes less time to move around the earth than the time taken by the earth to move around the sun.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

A string $A$ of length $0.314$ m and Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{10}$ N/m$^2$ is connected to another string $B$ of length and Young's modulus both twice of those of $A$. This series combination of strings is then suspended from a rigid support and its free end is fixed to a load of mass $0.8$ kg. The net change in length of the combination is _____ mm. (radius of both the strings is $0.2$ mm and acceleration due to gravity $= 10$ m/s$^2$) (Mass of both strings is to be neglected as compared to the mass of load)
A particle of mass $m$ falls from rest through a resistive medium having resistive force, $F=-k v$, where $v$ is the velocity of the particle and $k$ is a constant. Which of the following graphs represents velocity ($v$) versus time ($t$)?
A spring of force constant $15 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}$ is cut into two pieces. If the ratio of their length is $1: 3$, then the force constant of smaller piece is $\_\_\_\_$ $\mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$.
Initially a satellite of 100 kg is in a circular orbit of radius $1.5 \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{E}}$. This satellite can be moved to a circular orbit of radius $3 R_{E}$ by supplying $\alpha \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~J}$ of energy. The value of $\alpha$ is $\_\_\_\_$. (Take Radius of Earth $R_{E}=6 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~m}$ and $\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$)
A liquid drop of diameter $2$ mm breaks into $512$ droplets. The change in surface energy is $\alpha \times 10^{-6}$ J. The value of $\alpha$ is _______. (Take surface tension of liquid $= 0.08$ N/m)
