Question
Draw velocity-time graph to show:
Zero acceleration
Write a sentence to explain the shape of graph.
Solution
As slope of velocity time graph gives acceleration. So motion with zero acceleration is represented by line having zero zero slope with time axis or a line parallel to the time axis.
