CONCEPT:

  • Distance (s): The total distance travelled by an object from a starting point is called path length. Thus the total path length of an object is called distance travelled by that object.
    • It is a scalar quantity.
    • The SI unit of distance is meter (m).
  • Speed (v): The rate of change in distance is called speed. It is also a scalar quantity.

Speed (v) = ds/dt

Where t is time

CALCULATION:

Given that:

The distance travelled by a body is proportional to time.

So distance (s) = kt 

where k is a constant and t is time

Speed (v) = ds/dt = d(kt)/dt = k (Constant)

Thus speed remains constant. So option 4 is correct.
