Draw the distance$-$time graph for the following situations:
$(a)$ When a body is stationary.
$(b)$ When a body is moving with a uniform speed.
$(c)$ When a body is moving with non$-$uniform speed.
$(a)$ When a body is stationary.
$(b)$ When a body is moving with a uniform speed.
$(c)$ When a body is moving with non$-$uniform speed.
(N/A) When a body is stationary,its distance from the origin does not change with time. The graph is a straight line parallel to the time axis.
$(b)$ When a body is moving with a uniform speed,it covers equal distances in equal intervals of time. The graph is a straight line passing through the origin.
$(c)$ When a body is moving with non$-$uniform speed,it covers unequal distances in equal intervals of time. The graph is a curved line.
$(b)$ When a body is moving with a uniform speed,it covers equal distances in equal intervals of time. The graph is a straight line passing through the origin.
$(c)$ When a body is moving with non$-$uniform speed,it covers unequal distances in equal intervals of time. The graph is a curved line.
