Refer to the graph in figure. Match the following
Graph | Characteristics |
$(A)$ | $(i)$ has $v > 0$ and $a < 0$ throughout |
$(B)$ | $(ii)$ has $x > 0,$ throughout and has a point with $v = 0$ and a point with $a = 0$ |
$(C)$ | $(iii)$ has a point with zero displacement for $t > 0$ |
$(D)$ | $(iv)$ has $v < 0$ and $a > 0$ |
We have to analyse slope of each curve i.e., $\frac{d x}{d t}$ For peak points $\frac{d x}{d t}$ will be zero as $x$ is maximum at peak points.
For graph $(a)$, there is a point $(B)$ for which displacement is zero. So, a matches with $(iii)$
In graph (b), $x$ is positive $(>0)$ throughout and has a point $\mathrm{B}_{1}$ with $\mathrm{V}=\frac{d x}{d t}=0$. As at point of curvature changes $a=0$, So $b$ matches with $(ii)$
In graph $(c)$, slope $\mathrm{V}=\frac{d x}{d t}$ is negative hence, velocity will be negative. So, it matches with (iv)
In graph $(d)$, as slope $\mathrm{V}=\frac{d x}{d t}$ is positive hence, $\mathrm{V}>0$
Hence, $d$ matches with $(i)$
The position of a particle moving along the $X-$axis at certain times is given below :Which of the following describes the motion correctly
$\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline t( s ) & 0 & 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline x ( m ) & -2 & 0 & 6 & 16 \\ \hline \end{array} $
