MCQ
When a graph between two physical quantities is a straight line, the two quantities are:
  • A
    Both constant
  • B
    Independent of each other
  • Directly proportional
  • D
    Inversely proportional

Answer

Correct option: C.
Directly proportional

As we know the equation of a straight line is $Y = mX + C$
Let us assume $X$ and $Y$ are two different physical quantity and $C$ is any constant.
and the graph between them is straight line.
According to above equation,
$\text{Y}\propto\text{X}$
Hence, $X$ and $Y$ are Directly proportional.
