Question

What kind of motion of a body is represented by the graphs shown in figure
C ?

Answer 1

Answer:

Given graph is parabolic upward. It represents uniformly accelerated motion, where the velocity of the body increases with time.

HOPE IT'S CLEAR

Answer 2

In Graph (a), the body is at rest and in Graph (b), the body is in uniform motion and then comes to rest.

Given,

Distance-Time graphs

To Find,

The motion of the bodies

Solution,

We have been given two different Distance-Time graphs

In the first graph (a) -

• The line of the graph is straight throughout.
• It is parallel to the time axis all the while.
• This denotes that the time is increasing but the distance is not.
• Hence, this motion can be considered as rest.

In the second graph (b) -

• The line of the graph is slant and then straight.
• It is increasing and then becomes parallel to the time axis.
• This denotes that as time increases distance increases.
• After a point, the body stops and time increase but the distance does not.
• Hence, this motion can be considered the uniform motion and then the body comes to rest.

Finally, in graph (a), the body is at rest and in graph (b), the body is in uniform motion and then comes to rest.
