Question

What does the slope of a displacement-time graph represent? Can displacement-time sketch be parallel to the displacement axis?Give reason to your answer.

ICSE Class 9 Physics Chapter Motion in One Dimension

Answer 1

The velocity is given by the slope of displacement-time graph. The displacement-time sketch can never be a straight line or it can never be parallel to the displacement axis because if it happens, it would mean that the distance covered by the body in a specified direction is continuously increasing without taking any time. In other words, we can say that the velocity of body is infinite which is not possible.

$\underline{Here.is.your.Answer}$

No, In a Displacement-Time graph, line cannot be sketched parallel to the displacement axis. This will indicate that the time is at rest ( In terms of Physics ) , which is a totally false statement it is impossible since time is unstoppable...
