Solution
The correct option is A If both assertion and reason are true but the reason is the correct explanation of assertion. Viscosity of a liquid decreases with increase in temperature and vice versa i.e,
η=1√T
at low temperatures viscosity increases
Viscous drag increases
F=−ηAdvdx
force required to move the body or machine increases hence, machines are fammed
