Question

The velocity $(v)$ - time $(t)$ plot of the motion of a body is shown below. The acceleration ( $a$ ) - time ( $t$ ) graph that best suits this motion is

Professor PC Thomas Classes · Answer

(c) : Slope of velocity- time graph gives acceleration. $A B$ : Slope is positive and constant, so acceleration is positive and constant. $B C$ : Slope is zero, so acceleration is zero. $C D$ : Slope is negative and constant, so acceleration is negative and constant.
