A ball is rolling from A to D on a flat and smooth surface. Its speed is 2 cm/s. On reaching B, it was pushed continuously up to C. On reaching D from C, its speed had become 4 cm/s. It took 2 seconds for it to go from B to C. What is the acceleration of the ball as it goes from B to C?

Give an example of an accelerated body, moving with a uniform speed.
Diagram is given below shows velocity – time graph of car P and Q, starting from the same place and in the same direction. Calculate the Acceleration of car Q between 2 s – 5 s.

A car starts from rest and it is travelling with a velocity of 20 m/s in 10 s. What is its acceleration?
Negative acceleration is called ______.
State whether true or false. If false, correct the statement.
Acceleration can get negative value also.
Assertion: The accelerated motion of an object may be due to change in magnitude of velocity or direction or both of them.
Reason: Acceleration can be produced only by change in magnitude of the velocity. It does not depend the direction.
The slope of a velocity-time graph gives ______.
A quantity has a value of 16ms-2. It is the ______.
Assertion: A negative acceleration of a body can be associated with speeding up of the body.
Reason: Increase in the speed of a moving body is independent of its direction of motion.
