Question

The s-t graph of a freely falling body is ___.

  1. A straight line parallel to the x- axis.
  2. A straight line passing through the origin with a positive slope
  3. Parabolic.
  4. A straight line with a negative slope.

hintHint:

  • In an s-t graph the slope indicates the velocity of the body 
  • In the case of freely falling body the velocity increses with time.

The correct answer is: Parabolic.


    The s-t graph of a freely falling body is parabolic.
