Assertion (A): Two vectors are equal when their magnitude and direction both are equal.
Reason (R): For any two vectors $\overrightarrow{ A }$ and $\overrightarrow{ B }$, if angle between them is $\frac{\pi}{4}$ rad, then $\overrightarrow{ A } \times \overrightarrow{ B }=\overrightarrow{ A } \cdot \overrightarrow{ B }$.
Assertion (A): The division of a vector by another vector is not defined.
Reason (R): The division of a vector by a direction is not possible.
Assertion: It is not possible for a system, unaided by an external agency to transfer heat from a body at lower temperature to another body at a higher temperature.
Reason: According to Clausius statement “No process is possible whose sole result is the transfer of heat from a cooled object to a hotter object.”
Assertion: When percentage errors in the measurement of mass and velocity are $1 \%$ and $2 \%$ respectively, the percentage error in KE is $5 \%$.
Reason: $\frac{\Delta E}{E}=\frac{\Delta m}{m}+\frac{2 \Delta v}{v}$
Assertion (A): Mass and energy are not conserved separately, but are conserved as a single entity called mass energy. 
Reason (R): Mass and energy conservation can be obtained by Einstein equation for energy.
Assertion: A person feels weightlessness in an artificial satellite of the earth. However a person on the moon (natural satellite) feels his weight.
Reason: Satellite (natural or artificial) of a planet is a freely falling body.
Assertion (A): According to the law of conservation of mechanical energy change in potential energy is equal and opposite to the change in kinetic energy.
Reason (R): Mechanical energy is not a conserved quantity.
Assertion: Two particles moving in the same direction do not lose all their energy in a completely inelastic collision.
Reason: Principle of conservation of momenturm holds true for all kinds of collisions.
Assertion: The time period of revolution of a satellite close to surface of earth is smaller than that revolving away from surface of earth.
Reason: The square of time period of revolution of a satellite is directly proportional to cube of its orbital radius.
Assertion (A): A planet moves faster, when it is closer to the sun in its orbit and vice versa.
Reason (R): Orbital velocity in orbital of planet is constant.
