प्रश्न
Given figure shows the distance-time graph of three objects A, B and C. Study the graph and answer the following questions:

- Which of the three is travelling the fastest?
- Are all three ever at the same point on the road?
- How far has C travelled when B passes A?
- How far has B travelled by the time it passes C?

उत्तर
- The slope of B is greater than that of A and C. Hence, B is moving the fastest.
- No, because the three lines are not intersecting at any point.
- By the time B passes A, C covers a distance of about 9 km or more.
- By the time B passes C, it has travelled 6 km.
