Question

The following plots show variation of velocity $(v)$ with time $(t)$ of a ball thrown vertically upward, and falling back. Which of the following plots is/are correct?

A.

B.

C.

D.

E.

Options

A.C only
B.D only
C.B only
D.A and E only

Solution

Sol. [Key Concept: Velocity–time graph of a vertically thrown ball] During the whole journey, acceleration due to gravity is vertically downward.

Therefore, slope of velocity vs time curve should be negative throughout the journey.

∴ Statement C is correct
