Define v=u+at from velocity - time graph

Solution

The variation in velocity with time for an object moving in a straight line can be represented by Velocity Time Graph. In this graph, time is represented along the x axis and the velocity is represented along the y axis.

If the object moves at uniform velocity, the height of its velocity time graph will not change with respect to time

What is rest?

Solution

When an object does not change its position with time, with respect to it's surroundings. In such a case the object is said to be at rest.

What is motion?

Solution

When an object changes it's position with time, with respect to it's surroundings, the object is said to be in motion.
