Question

The velocity-time graph given shows the motion of a cyclist. Its acceleration is:

• A. $0m{s}^{-2}$
• B. $2.5m{s}^{-2}$
• C. $5m{s}^{-2}$
• D. $25m{s}^{-2}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $0m{s}^{-2}$

The slope of a velocity-time graph of a body is equal to its acceleration.

The slope of the graph is 0 and hence zero acceleration.
