Define the term acceleration due to gravity. State its average value.
Figure given below shows a velocity-time graph for a car starting from rest. The graph has three parts AB, BC and CD.

(a) Is the magnitude of acceleration higher or lower than that of retardation ? Give a reason .
(b) Compare the magnitude of acceleration and retardation .
Figure given below shows a velocity-time graph for a car starting from rest. The graph has three parts AB, BC and CD.

Which part of graph shows motion with uniform
(a) velocity (b) acceleration (c) retardation ?
From the diagram given below, calculate deceleration.

Interpret the following graph:
A car is moving with a speed of 50 km/h. One second later, its speed is 55 km/h. What is its acceleration?
The graph shows how the velocity of a scooter varies with time in 50 s.
Work out: Acceleration.
A car accelerates to a velocity of 30 m/s in 10 s and then decelerates for 20 s so that it stops. Draw a velocity-time graph to represent the motion and find:
Distance travelled
Figure represents graphically the velocity of a car moving along a straight road over a period of 100 hours.
Calculate the acceleration along AB and the retardation along BC.
State whether true or false. If false, correct the statement.
Acceleration can get negative value also.
