Figure shows the distance-time graph for the motion of two vehicles A and B. Which one of them is moving faster?
Figure: Distance-time graph for the motion of two cars

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.

Boojho goes to the football ground to play football. The distance-time graph of his journey from his home to the ground is given in the figure.
- What does the graph between points B and C indicate about the motion of Boojho?
- Is the motion between 0 to 4 minutes uniform or non-uniform?
- What is his speed between 8 and 12 minutes of his journey?
Assertion: The position-time graph of a uniform motion in one dimension of a body can have a negative slope
Reason: When the speed of the body decreases with time then, the position-time graph of the moving body has a negative slope.
