Figure: Distance-time graph for the motion of two cars
Advertisements
उत्तर
The speed is given by the relation
speed = `" distance travelled" / "time taken"`
This relation shows that the speed of a vehicle is high if it covers the maximum distance in a given time interval. To compare the distance, draw a line perpendicular to the time axis, as shown in the following distance-time graph
The graph clearly shows that for a given time t, vehicle A covers more distance than vehicle B. So, vehicle A is moving faster than vehicle B.
