Initial speed = u = 10 m/s
time duration to stop = t= 4 s
Final speed = v = 0
Acceleration , magnitude = (v-u)/t
a = -10/4 = - 2.5 m/s^2
Distance covered before halting
s = u t + 1/2 a t^2
s = 10 * 4 - 1/2 * 2.5 * 4^2 m
s = 20 m
time duration to stop = t= 4 s
Final speed = v = 0
Acceleration , magnitude = (v-u)/t
a = -10/4 = - 2.5 m/s^2
Distance covered before halting
s = u t + 1/2 a t^2
s = 10 * 4 - 1/2 * 2.5 * 4^2 m
s = 20 m

Answer:
a) It is a straight line graph.
b) -2.5 m/s^2
c) 20 m
Explanation:
Applying the basic equations of kinematics in one dimension for uniform acceleration:
u = 10 m/s^2 . v = 0. t = 4 s.
b) a = (v - u)/ t = (0 - 10)/4 = -2.5 m/s^2
c) s = u t + 1/2 a t^2 = 10 *4 - 1/2 * 2.5 * 4^2 = 20 m
a) see graph enclosed.
