If the velocity-time graph of a moving particle is parallel to time axis. Then the acceleration of that particle will be Correct Answer zero

Correct option-3

Concept:-

  • Velocity of a moving object indicates how fast the position of that particle is changing with time.
  • The slope of the tangent in a graph plotted between two physical quantities is the rate of change of that quantity represented by Y-axis with respect to the change in the quantity represented by x-axis.
  • The graph between velocity and time (v-t) is very useful in the numerical analysis.
  • The v-t graph gives us the idea of displacement and acceleration.
  • By the slope of v-t graph, we can find the acceleration and 
  • By the area under v-t graph we can find displacement.

 

Explanation:-

  • The slope of the tangent in a graph plotted between two physical quantities is the rate of change of that quantity represented by Y-axis with respect to the change in the quantity represented by x-axis.
  • For velocity- time graph, slope of v-t graph determines the instantaneous acceleration and its unit is m/s2
  • If the velocity-time graph of a moving particle is parallel to time axis then the slope of v-t graph is zero.
  • So the acceleration of the moving particle is zero.

Hence, option-is the correct answer.

 

  • In physics, graphs are the essential components in the interpretation and explanation of physical phenomena.
  • The most basic that we handled in many physical quantities like speed, angular movement, acceleration and constant speed.
  • They may be simple, but they are the basis for understanding other graphs such as sound waves or the behavior of electromagnetic forces.
  • Graphs are not only very important in physics, they also play a very crucial role in the field involving mathematics and numbers,
  • In fact graphs is the best that human beings could have shown in the world of physics and mathematics , as well as its areas at the end.
