Question

Draw Velocity-time graph for the following:

a) A body moving with constant velocity​

Answer 1

Explanation:

body moving with a constant velocity, the velocity-time graph is a straight line parallel to the time-axis, as shown in Fig. (a). (ii) Velocity-time graph for uniform acceleration. For a body in uniform acceleration, the increase in velocity is proportional to the time taken.

Answer 2

Requirement of a graph: A graph is used to connect the moment or change of one quantity to the other quantity.

Conditions velocity-time time graph could have:-

• If the velocity is zero, you will get a simple horizontal line on the graph.

• If a body is moving with some velocity, say 5m/s and then stays like that, it will be represented as a simple horizontal line in the graph, which will remain parallel to the x-axis.

Nature of uniform velocity graph: For a given change in x,y will be constant then we will get a straight line, no matter what graph it is.

• dependent values are represented on the y axis, and independent on x.

* The velocity-time graph of a body moving with constant velocity has been attached.
