Draw the velocity-time graph for a body moving with a uniform acceleration. Assume that the body is initially at rest.

Open in App

Solution

Uniform acceleration

For uniform acceleration, the velocity will increase by equal amount for equal intervals of time. Hence, it will be a straight line passing through origin.
