MCQ
Position time graph of a particle moving along straight line is shown which is in the form of semicircle starting from $t=2$ to $t=8 \,s$. Select correct statement
  • A
    Velocity of particle between $t=0$ to $t=2 \,s$ is positive
  • Velocity of particle is opposite to acceleration between $t=2$ to $t=5 \,s$
  • C
    Velocity of particle is opposite to acceleration between $t=5$ to $t=8 \,s$
  • D
    Acceleration of particle is positive between $t_1=2 s$ to $t_2=5 \,s$ while it is negative between $t_1=5 \,s$ to $t_2=8 \,s$

Answer

Correct option: B.
Velocity of particle is opposite to acceleration between $t=2$ to $t=5 \,s$
b
(b)

$(i)$ From $0$ to $2 \,s$ the velocity $=0$ as displacement is zero.

$(ii)$ From $2$ to $5 \,s$ velocity is decreasing but nature is positive, but acceleration is negative.

So, $v$ and $a$ have opposite nature.
