Let us call a motion, A when velocity is positive and increasing, , when velocity is negative and increasing. R when velocity is positive and decreasing and when velocity is negative and decreasing. Now, match the following two columns for the given s-t graph and mark the correct option from the codes given below.
Column I | Column II |
(A) M | (p) |
(B) N | (q) |
(C) P | (r) A |
(D) Q | (s) R |
Codes
A B C D
For M, slope of s-t graph is positive and increasing. Therefore, velocity of the particle is positive and increasing.
Hence, it is A type motion. Similarly, N, P and Q can be observed from the slope.
Hence, .
