A driver of a car travelling at 52 km h−1 applies the brakes and accelerates uniformly in the opposite direction. The car stops in 5 s. Another driver going at 3 km h−1 in another car applies his brakes slowly and stops in 10 s. On the same graph paper, plot the speed versus time graphs for the two cars. Which of the two cars travelled farther after the brakes were applied?
Given figure shows the distance-time graph of three objects A, B and C. Study the graph and answer the following questions:

- Which of the three is travelling the fastest?
- Are all three ever at the same point on the road?
- How far has C travelled when B passes A?
- How far has B travelled by the time it passes C?

A car moving with a constant speed.
Show the shape of the distance-time graph for the motion in the following case:
A car parked on a side road.
Which of the following distance-time graphs shows a truck moving with speed which is not constant?
The graph given alongside shows the positions of a body at different times. Calculate the speed of the body as it moves from :
(1) A to B,
(2) B to C, and
(3) C to D.

Show the shape of the distance – time graph for the motion in the following cases.
- A bus moving with a constant speed.
- A car parked on a road side.
Complete the data of the table given below with the help of the distance-time graph given in the figure.
| Distance (m) | 0 | 4 | ? | 12 | ? | 20 |
| Time (s) | 0 | 2 | 4 | ? | 8 | 10 |

Boojho goes to the football ground to play football. The distance-time graph of his journey from his home to the ground is given in the figure.

- What does the graph between points B and C indicate about the motion of Boojho?
- Is the motion between 0 to 4 minutes uniform or non-uniform?
- What is his speed between 8 and 12 minutes of his journey?
Assertion: The slope of the distance-time graph of a body moving with high speed is steeper than the slope of the distance-time graph of a body with low velocity.
Reason: Slope of distance-time graph = speed of the body.
