Motion 3

This document contains 10 multiple choice questions about motion graphs. It tests the interpretation of acceleration-time graphs, velocity-time graphs, and distance-time graphs. Correct answers are identified based on analyzing the slope and area under curves in the graphs to determine quantities like acceleration, velocity, distance, and time. Key details that can be determined from the graphs include the maximum acceleration, total distance traveled, time taken for specific portions of the journey, and the number of stops made.

1. The acceleration-time graph for a body is shown in the following graph. Which of the following
graphs would probably represent the velocity of the body plotted against time.

(a) (b)

(c) (d)
Sol. (d)
Slope of v-t graph gives acceleration. Here, acceleration is initially constant then becomes zero and
then again becomes constant. So option (d) is correct.
2. The graph below shows the velocity versus time graph for a body

Which of the following graphs represents the corresponding acceleration versus time graphs
(a) (b)

(c) (d)
Sol. (b)
Initially velocity – graph has -ve slope then positive slope. In v-t graph slope gives acceleration.
3. A train moves from one station to another in 2 hours-time. Its speed – time graph during this
motion is shown in figure. The maximum acceleration during this journey is___

(a) 140 km/h2 (b) 160 km/h2


(c) 100 km/h2 (d) 120 km/h2
Sol. (d)
From B to C slope is maximum.
