A sand dropper drops sand of mass m(t) on a conveyer belt at a rate proportional to the square root of speed (v) of the belt, i.e., $\frac{dm}{dt} \propto \sqrt{v}$. If P is the power delivered to run the belt at constant speed then which of the following relationship is true?
A bead of mass ' $m$ ' slides without friction on the wall of a vertical circular hoop of radius ' $R$ ' as shown in figure. The bead moves under the combined action of gravity and a massless spring (k) attached to the bottom of the hoop. The equilibrium length of the spring is ' $R$ '. If the bead is released from top of the hoop with (negligible) zero initial speed, velocity of bead, when the length of spring becomes ' $R$ ', would be (spring constant is ' $k$ ', $g$ is accleration due to gravity)
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason $\mathbf{R}$
Assertion A: In a central force field, the work done is independent of the path chosen.
Reason R: Every force encountered in mechanics does not have an associated potential energy.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
