Q. A particle shows distance-time curve as given in this figure. The maximum instantaneous velocity of the particle is around the point

A) D
B) A
C) B
D) C
Explanation

(d) Instantaneous velocity is given by the slope of the curve at that instant $v = \frac{ds}{dt} = \tan\theta$ from the figure it is clear that slope of the curve is maximum at point ‘$C$’
