A body is at rest at x=0. At t=0, it starts moving in the positive x-direction with a constant acceleration. At the same instant, another body passes through x=0 moving in the positive x-direction with a constant speed. The position of the first body is given by x1t after time t and that of the second body by x2t after the same time interval. Which of the following graphs in Fig.correctly describes x2-x1 as a function of time?
