For a linear relationship between displacement and time, we get a d-t graph as?

Correct answer: A. Straight-line passing through origin

  • A. Straight-line passing through origin
  • B. Straight line parallel to t- axis
  • C. Quadratic relationship
  • D. Cubic relationship

Explanation

This option is correct. For a linear relationship between displacement and time, the d-t graph will be a straight line that passes through the origin (0, 0). This indicates that when time (t) is zero, the displacement (d) is also zero, and as time increases, the displacement increases linearly.

About Displacement and Velocity

Displacement is the directed change in position, while velocity is the rate of change of displacement and includes both magnitude and direction. The topic connects position-time and velocity-time graphs with average and instantaneous values, and distinguishes displacement from distance and velocity from speed.
