What does a straight diagonal line and a curved line represent on:
Distance time graph
Velocity time graph

Open in App

Solution

Dear Student,

Straight diagonal line in a distance time graph shows that the velocity of the particle moving is constant and its acceleration is zero whereas the curved line shows that velocity of the moving object is not constant and acceleration is a non zero vector.

The straight line in a velocity time graph shows that acceleration of the body is constant whereas a curved line in velocity time graph shows that acceleration also changes with time.
