Question

For a displacement-time graph given below, what is the required nature of acceleration-time graph?

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

The given displacement-time graph is a straight line. Hence, the slope is constant i.e. it represents a uniform velocity. If the velocity is constant, then the acceleration is always zero. So the required acceleration-time graph is given by,


For this case mentioned underneath the acceleration is constant but not equal to zero. Hence not a correct option.

In other two options acceleration is not constant. Hence not a correct option as well.
