Question
Figure shows the velocity-time graphs for two objects A and B moving in same direction . Which object has the greater a cceleration?
Advertisements
Solution
As acceleration is the slope of line in velocity time graph and as B has greater slope than line A.
So B has greater acceleration than A.
