Fig. shows the distance-time graph of three objects A, B and C. Study the graph and answer the following questions:

Which of the three is travelling the fastest?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Speed = `("Distance")/("time")`
Slope of graph `= (Y"axis")/(X"axis") = ("Distance")/("Time")`
Therefore, speed = slope of the graph since slope of object B is greater than object A & C, it greater than object A and C, it is travelling faster.
