Question

PHYSICS ASSIGNMENT- GRAPH
1. A body starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at
5 mls for 7 seconds, along a straight line. It then starts
decelerating at a rate of 2 m/s for the next 5 seconde,
moves uniformly with a velocity of 25 mla for the next
2 seconds and then retards again and comes to rest in
another 3 seconds.
(a) Plot the velocity versus time graph for the body.
(W) Calculate the total distance travelled by the body
with the help of the graph.

Answer 1

Explanation:

body starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at

5 mls for 7 seconds, along a straight line. It then starts

decelerating at a rate of 2 m/s for the next 5 seconde,

moves uniformly with a velocity of 25 mla for the next

2 seconds and then retards again and comes to rest in

another 3 seconds.

(a) Plot the velocity versus time graph for the body.

(W) Calculate the total distance travelled by the body

with the help of the graph.
