Q. Choose the wrong option.
Gravitation
A
Inertial mass is a measure of difficulty of accelerating a body by an external force whereas the gravitational mass is relevant in determining the gravitational force on it by an external mass
18%
B
That the gravitational mass and inertial mass are equal is an experimental result
12%
C
That the acceleration due to the gravity on Earth is the same for all bodies and is due to the equality of gravitational mass and inertial mass
18%
D
Gravitational mass of a particle like proton can depend on the presence of neighbouring heavy objects but the inertial mass cannot
53%
Solution:
According to the principle of equivalence, the gravitational mass of a body is equal to its inertial mass.
