The velocity-time graph for part of a train journey is a horizontal straight line. What does this tell you about the trains velocity.
A body is moving uniformly in a straight line with a velocity of 5 m/s. Find graphically the distance covered by it in 5 seconds.
Diagram shows a velocity – time graph for a car starting from rest. The graph has three sections AB, BC, and CD.

Is the magnitude of acceleration higher or lower than that of retardation? Give a reason.
A train starting from rest picks up a speed of 20 ms−1 in 200 s. It continues to move at the same rate for the next 500 s and is then brought to rest in another 100 s.
- Plot a speed-time graph.
- From graph calculate
(a) uniform rate of acceleration
(b) uniform rate of retardation
(c) total distance covered before stopping
(d) average speed.
How will you use a speed-time graph to find whether the acceleration of the body is uniform or not?
Given below are the speed -time graphs. Match them with their corresponding motions :
![]() |
(a) Uniformity retared motion |
![]() |
(b) Non-uniformity acceleration |
![]() |
(c) Non-uniform motion |
