The figure represents the momentum time (p-t) curve for a particle moving along an axis under the influence of the force. Identify the regions on the graph where the magnitude of the force is maximum and minimum respectively ?

If t3-t2<t1

  1. c and a
  2. b and c
  3. c and b
  4. a and b

Solution

From Newton's second,

F=dpdt=slope of p-t curve

From the given graph, we can see that slope of region c is maximum and slope of region b is minimum.

Thus, Fc>Fa>Fb.
