The velocity-time graph (Fig. 8.5) shows the motion of a cyclist. Find (i) its acceleration (ii) its velocity and (iii) the distance covered by the cyclist in 15 seconds.

उत्तर
Velocity-time graph is a straight line parallel to the time axis, so, the velocity of the cyclist is constant.
(i) Acceleration = 0
(ii) At, f = 15 s velocity = 20 m s’1 (from the given graph)
(iii) Distance covered by the cyclist in 15 s
= Area under v - t graph during that time interval
= 20 ms’1 x 15 s
= 300 m.
