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 speed-time graph for a car is shown in the following figure:
- Find how far the car travels in the first 4 seconds. Shade the area on the graph that represents the distance travelled by the car during the period.
- Which part of the graph represents uniform motion of the car?
Figure shows the distance-time graph for the motion of two vehicles A and B. Which one of them is moving faster?

A cyclist is travelling at 15 m s-1. She applies brakes so that she does not collide with a wall 18 m away. What deceleration must she have ?
A car is travelling at 20 m/s along a road. A child runs out into the road 50 m ahead and the car driver steps on the brake pedal. What must the car’s deceleration be if the car is to stop just before it reaches the child ?
A spaceship is moving in space with a velocity of 60 kms−1. It fires its retro engines for 20 seconds and velocity is reduced to 55 kms−1. Calculate the distance travelled by a spaceship in 40 s, from the time of firing of the retro- rockets.
Show the shape of the distance – time graph for the motion in the following cases.
- A bus moving with a constant speed.
- A car parked on a road side.
If we denote speed by S, the distance by D and time by T, the relationship between these quantities is
The slope of the distance-time curve is steeper/greater is the ______.
What do you infer if
- Distance – time graph is a straight line.
- The velocity-time graph is curved.
- Displacement time is zigzag.
