उत्तर

We observe from the given displacement time graph above, that the slope is a straight line inclined with time axis, so the body is moving with uniform velocity. 

velocity = Slope of straight line

t = 1; velocity = `2/1` = 2 m/s

t = 2; velocity = `4/2` = 2 m/s

t = 3; velocity = `6/3` = 2 m/s

Hence, velocity at t = 1 s, 2 s and 3 s is equal to 2 m s-1 

Velocity-time graph for the motion of a body is given below:

A driver of a car travelling at 52 km h−1 applies the brakes and accelerates uniformly in the opposite direction. The car stops in 5 s. Another driver going at 3 km h−1 in another car applies his brakes slowly and stops in 10 s. On the same graph paper, plot the speed versus time graphs for the two cars. Which of the two cars travelled farther after the brakes were applied?
