A ball is thrown vertically upwards. Which of the following graph/graphs represent velocity-time graph of the ball during its flight (air resistance is neglected)

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
In the positive region the velocity decreases linearly (during rise) and in the negative region
velocity increases linearly (during fall) and the direction is opposite to each other during
rise and fall, hence fall is shown in the negative region.
