प्रश्न
Draw a velocity-time graph for a body moving with an initial velocity u and uniform acceleration a. Use this graph to find the distance travelled by the body in time t.

उत्तर
In this graph, initial velocity = u
Velocity at time t = v
Let acceleration be 'a'
Time = t
Then, distance travelled by the body in t s = area between the v-t graph and X-axis
Or distance travelled by the body in t s = area of the trapezium OABD
= (1/2) × (sum of parallel sides) × (perpendicular distance between them)
= (1/2) × (u + v) × (t)
= (u + v)t /2

A particle moves along a circular path. How many times does it change its direction in two complete rounds?
An object covers a distance of S meters in t seconds as follows :
| S (meters) | 0 | 8 | 20 | 20 | 16 | 10 | 0 |
| t (Seconds) | 80 | 2 | 5 | 10 | 12 | 15 | 10 |
Plot a graph, taking t on X-axis and S on Y-axis. Determine the velocity of the object at time
(i) 6 s, and
(ii) 14 s.
State whether true or false. If false, correct the statement.
Distance covered by a particle never becomes zero but displacement becomes zero.
