Question

A toy car can cover a distance of 5 cm in one second, when it is switched on.
a. Draw its position-time graph for the first 5 seconds.
b. Calculate its velocity from the graph.
c. State whether the car is in accelerated motion or not?
d. Define displacement, speed and velocity

Answer 1

Answer:

The toy car is fastest during first 10 seconds is correct as it travels a distance of 5 m, whereas it travels a distance of 2 m in the next 10 seconds and 3 m in the next 10 seconds.

The toy car is slowest in between 10 to 20 seconds is correct as it travels only a distance of 2 m which is less than the rest of the 10 seconds time interval.

Distance traveled during last 10 seconds is 5 m is incorrect as it travels a distance of 3 m.
