TS EAMCET · Physics · Motion In One Dimension
A particle covers a distance from \(A\) to \(B\) over a period of time; the distance versus time plot is the shown below. Then which of the following is true for the motion of the particle?
- A Both average speed and instantaneous speed are always zero.
- B Average speed is always non-zero but instantaneous speed can be zero.
- C Instantaneous speed is always non-zero but average speed can be zero.
- D Both average speed and instantaneous speed are always non-zero.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Average speed is always non-zero but instantaneous speed can be zero.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The distance versus time plot for movement of a particle from \(A\) and \(B\) is shown in the diagram. From graph, it is a slope of distance-time graph for position \(A\) to \(C\) and \(D\) to \(B\) is always positive, therefore both the average speed and instantaneous speed are…
