प्रश्न
Write an expression for the distance S covered in time t by a body which is initially at rest and starts moving with a constant acceleration a.

उत्तर
Distance = s, time = t, initial velocity u = 0 and acceleration = a.
Using the second equation of motion and substituting the above values we get,
s = ut + (1/2) at2
s = `1/2 "at"^2`

Under what conditions can a body travel a certain distance and yet its resultant displacement be zero ?
A ball moves on a smooth floor in a straight line with uniform velocity 10 m s-1 for 6 s. At t = 6 s, the ball hits a wall and comes back along the same line to the starting point with the same speed. Draw the velocity-time graph and use it to find the total distance travelled by the ball and its displacement.
