The \overline{V} - t graph of a moving object is given in figure. The maximum acceleration is

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Maximum acceleration means maximum change in velocity in minimum time interval.
In time interval t = 30 to \(t = 40 \text{ sec}\)
\(a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{80 - 20}{40 - 30} = \frac{60}{10} = 6 \, \mathrm{cm/sec^2}\)
