Question

The displacement time graph of a moving particle is shown below The instantaneous velocity of the particle is negative at the point

A

$\text{C}$

B

$\text{E}$

C

$\text{D}$

D

$\text{F}$

Answer

$\text{E}$

Explanation

Solution

At $E,$ the slope of the curve is negative, i.e. for a displacement-time graph the slope represents the velocity and at $E,$ the velocity is $- \text{v} \text{e}$ as the slope is $- \text{v} \text{e}$ .
