Velocity - Time Graph problem 26


The variation with time of velocity of a car is shown in the figure below




At time , the driver sees an obstacle in the road. A short time later, the driver applies the brakes. The car travels in two stages, as shown in the figure.


  • Use the figure to describe the velocity of the car in


    • Stage 1


    • Stage 2


  • Calculate the distance travelled by the car from to .
