Question

The displacement time graph of a moving particle is shown
below
The instantaneous velocity of the particle is negative at the
point
(a) D (b) F
(c) C (d) E

Answer 1

Answer:

Instantaneous velocity is given by the slope of a displacement time graph. The only part of the graph with negative slope is point E. Hence at point E, velocity of the graph is negative.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is (d)E

Explanation:

Instantaneous velocity is given by the slope of a displacement time graph.

The only part of the graph with negative slope is point E.

Hence at point E, velocity of the graph is negative.

Option d is correct.
