The theoretical analysis of magnetohydrodynamic flow past a parabolic motion started infinite vertical plate with variable temperature and uniform mass diffusion has been analysed. The plate temperature is raised linearly with time and the concentration level near the plate is raised uniformly. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using the Laplace transform technique. The effect of the velocity profile is discussed for different physical parameters like the thermal Grashof number, mass Grashof number, Schmidt number, and time. We conclude that the observation of velocity increases as the value of the thermal Grashof number or mass Grashof number increases. The trend is reversed with respect to the magnetic field parameter, as shown with the help of graphs.
