(a) The distance time graph of a body is parallel to the time axis. What does it indicate ?
(b) The distance time graph of a body coincide with time axis. What does it indicate ?

A

in uniform motion

B

at rest

C

in uniformly accelerated motion

D

in zig zag motion.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The distance moved by the body is zero. Therefore, the body is at rest at the origin.
