The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding which equation represents the Position-Time relation, we need to analyze each option provided: 1. **Understanding the equations of motion**: - There are three primary equations of motion that describe the relationship between position, velocity, acceleration, and time. These are: 1. \( V = u + at \) (Equation 1) 2. \( S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2 \) (Equation 2) 3. \( v^2 - u^2 = 2as \) (Equation 3) 2. **Identifying the Position-Time relation**: - The Position-Time relation describes how the position (S) of an object changes over time (t) under constant acceleration (a). - Among the three equations listed, the equation that directly relates position (S) to time (t) is: \[ S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2 \] - This equation shows that the position (S) is a function of the initial velocity (u), time (t), and acceleration (a). 3. **Evaluating the options**: - **Option A**: \( S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2 \) - This is the correct Position-Time relation. - **Option B**: \( V = u + at \) - This relates velocity to time, not position. - **Option C**: \( U = y + at \) - This does not represent a standard equation of motion. - **Option D**: \( 2as = v^2 - u^2 \) - This relates acceleration and velocity, not position directly. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is **Option A**: \( S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2 \). ### Summary of Steps: 1. Identify the three equations of motion. 2. Determine which equation relates position to time. 3. Evaluate each option against the identified equation. 4. Conclude with the correct answer.
