Velocity-time graph

Velocity-time graph of various types of  motion of a body . When a body is moving with a constant  velocity , the  velocity-time graph  is a straight line AB parallel to time axis. Velocity-time graph-1 The slope of  velocity-time curve  (representing the instantaneous acceleration) is zero. When a body is moving with a constant acceleration and its initial velocity is zero, the velocity-time curve is an oblique straight line , passing through origin. Velocity-time graph-2 Greater will be the slope of straight line OA, greater will be the instantaneous acceleration. When a body is moving with a constant acceleration and its initial velocity is not zero, the  velocity-time curve  is an oblique straight line AB not passing through origin. Velocity-time graph-3 A) Here OA represents the instant velocity of the boy. B) The area enclosed by the  velocity-time figure  with time axis ...
