Four motorcars A, B, C and D are moving ...

Four motorcars A, B, C and D are moving on a road in the same direction. Their graphs for distance-time are shown in the same graph paper, which of the following state is true ?

A

Motorcar A is faster than car c.

B

Motorcar D is the fastest.

C

Motorcar B is faster than car D.

D

Motorcar is slower than car B.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C, D
The slope of distance-time represents speed. But slope of distance-time graph `= tan theta`
`therefore` The angle formed by the distance time graph of motorcar D with time axis (positive x-axis) in anticlockwise direction is the largest.
`therefore `Its slopw `= tan theta` is the highest.
