Measure of displacement covered with passage of time is called.
Correct answer: C. velocity
- A. Acceleration
- B. speed
- C. velocity
- D. Deceleration
Explanation
This is the rate at which displacement changes with respect to time. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. This is correct option

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.
