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 ball is thrown up vertically and returns back to thrower in 6 s. Assuming there is no air friction, plot a graph between velocity and time. From the graph calculate
- deceleration
- acceleration
- total distance covered by ball
- average velocity.
