Fill in the blanks:
1. When s-t graph is parallel to x-axis, the body is____________.
2. When v-t graph is parallel to x-axis, the body is____________.
3. The slope of v-t graph for a body in uniformly accelerated motion is____________.
4. The slope of displacement-time graph for a car parked in a parking area is____________.
5. Acceleration is a____________quantity.
Answers
Answer:
1. When S-T graph is parallel to x-axis the body is said to be at rest since the slope of S-T is zero.
2. When v-t graph is parallel to x-axis the body is moving in a constant velocity.
3. Velocity of an object in uniform circular motion is constant. A car moving on a crowded road with a number of traffic red signals is in non-uniform motion. Displacement of a body can be positive or zero, but never negative
4. distance remains same while time increases. A horizontal line on graph. A horizontal line has 0° slope.
5. Acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity.
Answer:
1) moving uniformly
2) not accelerating
3) positive
4) zero
5) vector
