A car accelerates to a velocity of 30 m/s in 10 s and then decelerates for 20 s so that it stops. Draw a velocity-time graph to represent the motion and find:
The acceleration.
A bus can accelerate with an acceleration of 1 m/s2 . Find the minimum time for the bus to attain the speed of 100 km/s from 50 km /s.
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.
