The following figures show the variation of displacement with time of a particular object. (a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
  1. Figure (a) and (b) show object at rest and object moving with uniform velocity in positive $x$ direction respectively.
  2. Figure (b) and (c) show object at rest and object moving with uniform velocity in negative $x$ direction respectively.
  3. Figure (c) and (d) show object at rest and object moving with uniform velocity in negative $x$ direction respectively.
  4. Figure (a) and (b) show object at rest.

Solution

In figure a, the graph represents no change in position of the object, which shows that the object is in rest. In figure b, the graph has slope-I, which shows that the object is moving with a uniform velocity as the slope is constant throughout the time period. The slope of displacement-time graph is the velocity of the object
