Question
A body moves along a straight road with a speed of 20 m/s and has a uniform acceleration of 5 m/s2. What will be its speed after 2 s?

Solution
Initial velocity u = 20 m/s.
Acceleration = 5 m/s2.
T = 2 s.
We know v= u + at.
v= 20 + 5X2= 30 m/s.

The slope of the distance-time curve is steeper/greater is the ______.
Assertion: The position-time graph of a uniform motion in one dimension of a body can have a negative slope
Reason: When the speed of the body decreases with time then, the position-time graph of the moving body has a negative slope.
