Question

In the velocity time graph below, what does the section of the graph below the time axis refers to?

• A. The object travelling downwards
• B. The object travelling in the opposite direction to the initial motion
• C. The object travelling upwards
• D. The object is at rest.

Answer 1

The correct option is B The object travelling in the opposite direction to the initial motion

As from the graph it can be seen that the velocity of the object is decreasing and at a particular time it becomes zero. Again, it has increased but this time it is negative. So, we can say that the object travelling in the opposite direction to the initial motion.
