Q. A particle is moving on a straight line path with constant acceleration directed along the direction of instantaneous velocity. Which of the following statements are false about the motion of particle?
A) Particle may reverse the direction of motion
B) Distance covered is not equal to magnitude of displacement
C) The magnitude of average velocity is less than average speed
D) All of the above
Explanation
(d) Since, acceleration is in the direction of instantaneous velocity, so particle always moves in forward direction.
Hence, (d) is correct.
