प्रश्न
Can you suggest the kind of motion of a body from the following distance – time graph?

उत्तर
Distance – time graph in the figure shows that initially, the body is in uniform motion i.e. it covers equal distance in equal intervals of time.
From O to A, the body is in uniform motion, and from A to B, the body is at rest.

An ant travels a distance of 8 cm from P to Q and then moves a distance of 6 cm at right angles to PQ. Find its resultant displacement.
How is the distance related with time for motion under uniform acceleration such as the motion of a freely falling body?
A body is moving in a straight line and its displacement at various instants of time is given in the following table
| Time (s) | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
| Displacement (m) | 2 | 6 | 12 | 12 | 12 | 18 | 22 | 24 |

(i) Total distance travelled in the interval 1 s to 5 s.
(ii) Average velocity in time interval 1 s to 5 s.
