Figure shows the velocity-time graphs for two cars A and B moving in the same direction. Which car has greater acceleration? Give reasons to your answer.

The velocity-time graph for a uniformly retarded body is a straight line inclined to the time axis with an obtuse angle. How is retardation calculated from the velocity-time graph?
A space craft flying in a straight course with velocity of 75 km s-1 fires its rocket motors for 6.0 s. At the end of this time its speed is 120 km s-1 in the same direction.
Find
(i) The space craft's average acceleration while the motors were firing
(ii) The distance travelled by the space craft in the first 10 s after the rocket motors were started, the motors being in action for only 6 s.
A cyclist driving at 5 ms−1, picks a velocity of 10 ms−1, over a distance of 50 m. Calculate
- acceleration
- time in which the cyclist picks up above velocity.
A motor bike running at 90 kmh−1 is slowed down to 18 kmh−1 in 2.5 s. Calculate
- acceleration
- distance covered during slow down.
