Figure (a) shows the displacement-time graph for the motion of a body. Use it to calculate the velocity of the body at t = 1 s, 2 s and 3 s, and then draw the velocity-time graph in Figure (b) for it.

उत्तर
We observe from the given displacement time graph above, that the slope is a straight line inclined with time axis, so the body is moving with uniform velocity.
velocity = Slope of straight line
t = 1; velocity = `2/1` = 2 m/s
t = 2; velocity = `4/2` = 2 m/s
t = 3; velocity = `6/3` = 2 m/s
Hence, velocity at t = 1 s, 2 s and 3 s is equal to 2 m s-1
Velocity-time graph for the motion of a body is given below:

A driver of a car travelling at 52 km h−1 applies the brakes and accelerates uniformly in the opposite direction. The car stops in 5 s. Another driver going at 3 km h−1 in another car applies his brakes slowly and stops in 10 s. On the same graph paper, plot the speed versus time graphs for the two cars. Which of the two cars travelled farther after the brakes were applied?

The distance between Bholu’s and Golu’s house is 9 km. Bholu has to attend Golu’s birthday party at 7 o’clock. He started from his home at 6 o’clock on his bicycle and covered a distance of 6 km in 40 minutes. At that point, he met Chintu and spoke to him for 5 minutes and reached Golu’s birthday party at 7 o’clock. With what speed did he cover the second part of the journey? Calculate his average speed for the entire journey.
The slope of the distance-time graph indicates the speed.
Assertion: The position-time graph of a uniform motion in one dimension of a body can have a negative slope
Reason: When the speed of the body decreases with time then, the position-time graph of the moving body has a negative slope.
Assertion: The slope of the distance-time graph of a body moving with high speed is steeper than the slope of the distance-time graph of a body with low velocity.
Reason: Slope of distance-time graph = speed of the body.
