motion.
(C) Draw the two graphs
Answers
Answer:
linear motion
Step-by-step explanation:
the ant covers 4 mm in every second.
Ant covers equal distance in equal time
So this will be a linear motion
between distance and time
Graph would be a linear inclined line
(Distance increasing at same speed with time)
between velocity and time
Linear straight line
Velocity constant with time
Answer:
An ant is moving through a graph paper along x - axis. A boy observes that the ant covers 4 mm in every second.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) This is linear uniform motion as the ant is moving only on x- axis and its displacement if 0 at each time t from y axis. Also as stated in the question the ant moves at the speed of 4 mm in every second. That shows that it is uniform motion.
b) Between distance and time, the graph should be a slanting line with slope = 1. Starting from t=0, distance= 0 or origin.
For velocity time graph it is a horizontal line.
The velocity graph will be drawn at 4 mm/s on y axis parallel to x axis. The velocity is constant here and hence the graph is a horizontal line because it does not deviate on y axis.
