Figure given shows the distance - time graph of the motion of a car. It follows from the graph that the car is

A

at rest

B

in uniform motion

C

in non-uniform acceleration

D

uniformly accelerated

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Since `x=1.2 t^(2)`, comparing if with equation of motion `x=(1)/(2)at^(2)`.
Thus the motion is uniformly accelerated.
