प्रश्न
Figure given below shows a velocity-time graph for a car starting from rest. The graph has three parts AB, BC and CD.
Compare the distance travelled in part BC with the distance travelled in part AB.
उत्तर
Distance travelled in part BC = Area of the rectangle tBC2t = base × height.
= (2t - t) × vo
= vot
Distance travelled in part AB = Area of the triangle ABt
= (1/2) × base × height
= (1/2) × t × vo
= (1/2) vo t
Therefore, distance travelled in part BC:distance travelled in part AB :: 2:1.

Distance and displacement
A body is moving in a straight line and its displacement at various instants of time is given in the following table
| Time (s) | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
| Displacement (m) | 2 | 6 | 12 | 12 | 12 | 18 | 22 | 24 |
Plot the displacement-time graph and calculate
(i) Total distance travelled in the interval 1 s to 5 s.
(ii) Average velocity in time interval 1 s to 5 s.
A car travels a distance 100 m with constant acceleration and average velocity of 20 ms-1. The final velocity acquired by the car is 25 ms-1.
Find
(i) The initial velocity.
(ii) Acceleration of the car.
