When a body is moving uniformly along a straight line and there is no force of friction, acceleration/retardation of the body. According to Newton's second law of motion, the magnitude of force acting on a body is the product of mass and acceleration of the body
The distance - time table of an object in motion is given below

In the given table, acceleration of the object is

A

increasing

B

decreasing

C

constant

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
From the given table we can see that velocity is changing in unequal amount in equal intervals of time. Therefore, acceleration is non - uniform. Since the velocity is increasing with time, we can say that acceleration is increasing non-uniformly
