Answer: D

Both statements are true, so the answer is both (A) and (R) are true.

General fatigue comes from the strain of doing tedious and boring work that gives no personal satisfaction. The reason states the same cause from the worker's side: strenuous and disliked work leads to fatigue and stress, and the worker is not satisfied.

The options that call the assertion false, or the reason false or only partly true, are therefore wrong.

Answer: A

The assertion is correct and the reason is wrong, so the answer is (A) is correct but (R) is wrong.

Ergonomics is also called human engineering or human factors, which is the claim of the assertion.

The focus of its study is the fit between the worker, the equipment and the work environment, in order to improve efficiency, comfort and safety. Worker fatigue is one of the things it reduces, but it is not the sole focus, so the reason is wrong.

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: C

The correct matching is iii iv i ii.

A microwave oven works by radiation, a refrigerator by condensation of the refrigerant gas, a washing machine by agitation and centrifugation, and a vacuum cleaner by suction.

Convection is not used by any of the four in this list. The other codes pair the machines with the wrong principles, for example suction with the microwave.

The refrigerant of a refrigerator takes up heat as it evaporates inside the cabinet and gives it out as it condenses in the coils at the back.
