NEET Physics Speed & Velocity MCQ Question
Consider a velocity-time graph where a particle moves along a straight line with uniform acceleration. The graph shows a straight line starting from the origin and rising to a point (t, v) at time t. What does the slope of this line represent?

The constant acceleration of the particle
The initial velocity of the particle
The distance covered by the particle
The average velocity of the particle
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In a velocity-time graph, the slope of the line represents the acceleration. Since the line is straight, the acceleration is uniform as mentioned in the NCERT context.
