Question
Suggest a suitable physical situation for the following graph:
Solution
The (n-t) graph illustrates that the body experiences acceleration for a brief period of time. As a result, it may represent a physical situation in which a ball, consistently traveling at a uniform pace, is briefly impacted by a bat for a short interval of time.
