Question

A car starts from rest and moves at a constant speed. How will be its position-time graph?

  1. Parabolic
  2. Straight line parallel to the x-axis
  3. Straight line crossing the x-axis
  4. Straight line passing through the origin

hintHint:

Straight line passing through the origin

The correct answer is: Straight line passing through the origin


    As the car is starting from rest then the slope of the graph will originate from the origin and as the car is moving at a constant speed then the slope of the graph will be straight.
    Hence,
    A car starts from rest and moves at a constant speed. The graph of the position time graph  will be straight line passing through the origin
