2.Motion in Straight Line
medium

$v^2$ versus $s$-graph of a particle moving in a straight line is as shown in figure. From the graph some conclusions are drawn. State which statement is wrong?

AThe given graph shows a uniformly accelerated motion
BInitial velocity of particle is zero
CCorresponding $s-t$ graph will be a parabola
DNone of the above

Solution

(b)
For uniformly accelerate motion, $v^2=u^2+2 a s$, i.e. $v^2$ versus $s$ graph is a straight line with intercept $u^2$ and slope $2 a$. Since, intercept in non-zero, initial velocity is non-zero.
