प्रश्न
Boojho goes to the football ground to play football. The distance-time graph of his journey from his home to the ground is given in the figure.

- What does the graph between points B and C indicate about the motion of Boojho?
- Is the motion between 0 to 4 minutes uniform or non-uniform?
- What is his speed between 8 and 12 minutes of his journey?

उत्तर
a. Graph between points B and C is a horizontal line which indicates that Boojho is at rest, i.e., his speed is zero.
b. Motion between 0 to 4 minutes is non-uniform as distance-time graph for this time interval is not a straight line.
c. Speed of Boojho between 8 and 12 minutes of his journey
= `((225 - 150) "m")/((12 - 8) "min")`
= `75/4`
= 18.75 m/min

Distance between Bholu’s and Golu’s house is 9 km. Bholu has to attend Golu’s birthday party at 7 o’clock. He started from his home at 6 o’clock on his bicycle and covered a distance of 6 km in 40 minutes. At that point, he met Chintu and he spoke to him for 5 minutes and reached Golu’s birthday party at 7 o’clock. With what speed did he cover the second part of the journey? Calculate his average speed for the entire journey.
