NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11

Consider a graph depicting the velocity-time relationship for a particle moving in a straight line with acceleration. If the velocity at t = 0 is 0 m/s and at t = 2.0 s is 10 m/s, which of the following statements about the acceleration of the particle is correct?

Question diagram
A

The acceleration is constant at 5.0 m/s².

B

The acceleration decreases over time.

C

The acceleration increases over time.

D

The acceleration is zero.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The velocity of the particle changes from 0 m/s to 10 m/s over a time interval of 2.0 s, indicating a constant acceleration calculated as (10 m/s - 0 m/s) / 2.0 s = 5.0 m/s².
