Question

if the velocity of a vehicle starting from rest reaches 5m/2s in 2seconds, is the velocity of the vehicle uniform ?explain.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Avg speed × total times = total distance

20×25=500

Since acceleration in the 1st interval is same as deceleration in the 3rd interval and deceleration is from the same velocity achieved after acceleration, t
