An object is moving along a straight line with uniform acceleration. The following table gives the velocity of the object at various instants of time

Time $(s)$ $0$ $1$ $2$ $3$ $4$ $5$ $6$
Velocity $\left( m s ^{-1}\right)$ $2$ $4$ $6$ $8$ $10$ $12$ $14$

Plot the graph.

From the graph.

$(i)$ Find the velocity of the object at the end of $2.5 sec$

$(ii)$ Calculate the acceleration.

$(iii)$ Calculate' the distance covered in the last $4$ sec.

$(i)$ $v=7 m s ^{-1}$

$(ii)$ $\quad a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{14-2}{6}=2 m s ^{-2}$

$(iii)$ $S =$ Area under the graph

$=$ Area of the trapezium $ABCD$

$=\frac{1}{2}[ AD + BC] \times CD$

$=\frac{1}{2}[6+14] \times 4=40 m$

Can a body have constant speed and still be accelerating ?

What can you conclude about the motion of a body depicted by the velocity$-$time graphs $(i),(i i)$ and $(i i i)$ given below

There is an argument about uniform acceleration between $Mr$ $X$ and $Mr$ $Y.$ $Mr$ $X$ says "acceleration means that farther you go faster you go". $Mr$ $Y$ says "acceleration means that longer you go the faster you go". Whose statement is correct ?
