प्रश्न
Given figure shows the distance-time graph of three objects A, B and C. Study the graph and answer the following questions:
- Which of the three is travelling the fastest?
- Are all three ever at the same point on the road?
- How far has C travelled when B passes A?
- How far has B travelled by the time it passes C?

उत्तर
- The slope of B is greater than that of A and C. Hence, B is moving the fastest.
- No, because the three lines are not intersecting at any point.
- By the time B passes A, C covers a distance of about 9 km or more.
- By the time B passes C, it has travelled 6 km.

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?

A spaceship is moving in space with a velocity of 60 kms−1. It fires its retro engines for 20 seconds and velocity is reduced to 55 kms−1. Calculate the distance travelled by a spaceship in 40 s, from the time of firing of the retro- rockets.
Write down the type of motion of a body in each of the following distance time-graph.
The slope of the distance-time graph at any point gives______.
The slope of the distance-time curve is steeper/greater is the ______.
Assertion: The position-time graph of a uniform motion in one dimension of a body can have a negative slope
Reason: When the speed of the body decreases with time then, the position-time graph of the moving body has a negative slope.
