A particle shows distance-time curve as given in this figure. The maximum instantaneous velocity of the particle is around the point.
.

Options

A. B
B. C
C. D
D. A

Answer

B

Explanation

Particle has maximum instantaneous velocity at the point at when the slope is maximum.
Therefore, `v_(max) = (dx)/(dt)` = maximum slope
From figure it is obvious that an point `C`, slope is maximum, hence at this point velocity is maximum.
