Question

A particle starts with velocity $u$ and moves with constant acceleration $a.$ What is the nature of graph between the displacement $\left(x\right)$ vs. time $\left(t\right)$ ?

• A. Straight line
• B. Part of an ellipse
• C. Parabola
• D. Rectangular hyperbola

Answer 1

The correct option is C Parabola

$x=ut+1/2a{t}^2$
$u\ne 0,a\ne 0$(constant)
It's an equation of parabola & since $u\ne 0$
The curve is asymmetric.
