Question

Which type of motion can be depicted from the graph shown below?

• A. Uniform velocity motion
• B. Uniform motion
• C. Uniformly accelerated motion
• D. Non-uniformly accelerated motion

Answer 1

The correct option is C Uniformly accelerated motion

According to the graph, the velocity of the body changes linearly with respect to time. The rate of change of velocity, or acceleration of the body is constant. Hence, it's an example of a uniformly accelerated motion.
If rate of change of distance with respect to time is constant, the motion is said to be a uniform motion or uniform velocity motion. Here the body is changing its velocity with time so it is not an uniform motion.
