The numerical ratio of displacement to distance for a moving object is :
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.
Draw displacement – time graph for the following situation:
When a body is moving with uniform velocity.
Can you suggest the kind of motion of a body from the following distance – time graph?

A motor car slows down from 72 kmh−1 to 36 kmh−1 over a distance of 25 m. If the brakes are applied with the same force
calculate
- total time in which car comes to rest
- distance travelled by it.
Can a body have negative displacement?
Calculate the distance and displacement in the following case:
Give the name of the physical quantity that corresponds to the rate of change of displacement.
The table below shows the distance travelled by two vehicles A and B during each second:
| Time (s) | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
| Distance travelled by A (m) | 0 | 20 | 80 | 180 | 240 | 300 | 360 | 420 |
| Distance travelled by B (m) | 0 | 10 | 40 | 90 | 160 | 250 | 360 | 490 |
At what time do A and B meet?Which vehicle is moving with a constant acceleration?
