A particle is moving in a straight line with uniform acceleration. Which graph represents the motion of the particle?
Correct answer: B. B
- A. A
- B. B
- C. C
- D. D
Explanation
The correct graph for a particle moving in a straight line with uniform acceleration is the one that shows a constant slope on a velocity-time graph, indicating constant acceleration. Option B correctly represents this scenario. Option A and D suggest increasing acceleration, which does not match the condition of uniform acceleration. Option C shows constant velocity, implying no acceleration, which contradicts the condition given in the question.

About Force and Motion
Displacement, velocity and acceleration describe motion, including the horizontal and vertical components of projectile motion. The chapter connects these quantities with Newton's laws, momentum and impulse, then applies conservation of momentum to collisions, distinguishing elastic collisions from inelastic ones.
