The position-time graph of a particle is a parabola opening upwards. This indicates that the particle has:
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Position-time graph as parabola: x = x₀ + ut + ½at². This quadratic form indicates constant acceleration 'a'. If acceleration were changing, the graph would be cubic or higher order. Constant velocity would produce a straight line (linear graph). Upward opening parabola implies positive acceleration. Graph interpretation skill is essential: slope of x-t graph = velocity; curvature indicates acceleration. Memory tip: Parabolic x-t graph ⇔ constant acceleration; linear x-t graph ⇔ constant velocity. Competitive exams frequently test graph-concept correlations.

Lens power P = -4 D. Focal length and type:
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation:
P = 1/f(m) ⇒ f = 1/P = 1/(-4) = -0.25 m = -25 cm. Negative focal length indicates diverging (concave) lens. Memory aid: 'Negative power = concave lens; f(cm) = 100/P(D)'. Direct lens power application frequently tested in competitive exams with sign convention awareness.
