Question
Starting from A, Paheli moves along a rectangular path ABCD as shown in figure. She takes 2 minutes to travel each side. Plot a distance-time graph and explain whether the motion is uniform or non-uniform.

Solution
Since the distance covered per unit time for the entire rectangular path covered is not the same, the motion is non-uniform.

The area under velocity time graph represents ______.
Assertion: The slope of the distance-time graph of a body moving with high speed is steeper than the slope of the distance-time graph of a body with low velocity.
Reason: Slope of distance-time graph = speed of the body.
What do you infer if
- Distance – time graph is a straight line.
- The velocity-time graph is curved.
- Displacement time is zigzag.
