Question

Find the distance travelled by the particle in 10 seconds in each case. What is the difference between the dotted line in graph (a) and solid line in graph (b)?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Distance travelled in both cases will be 100 m

Assuming unit of v is m/s.

The difference in the dotted and solid line of graph (a) and (b) is that the dotted line just marks the time on x-axis that is the time axis where as

the solid one shows the body's velocity suddenly came to be zero. This happens only in case when a large force is applied suddenly i.e impulse
