    The velocity time graph of moving object is given in the figure. Find the maximum acceleration of the body and distance travelled by the body in the interval of time in which this acceleration exists.

    A)  \[6\text{ }m/{{s}^{2}},500\text{ }m\]

    B)  \[3\text{ }m/{{s}^{2}},200m\]

    C) \[-6\text{ }m/{{s}^{2}},500m\]                  

    D)  \[-3\text{ }m/{{s}^{2}},500m\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     Rate of change of velocity is defined as acceleration. \[\therefore \]  \[a=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}\] \[\Delta t=20-0=20\text{ }s,\text{ }\Delta V=20\text{ }m/s\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{a}_{1}}=\frac{20}{20}=1\,m/{{s}^{2}}\] Also, acceleration from 30 s to 40 s is \[{{a}_{2}}=\frac{80-20}{40-30}=\frac{60}{10}=6\,m/{{s}^{2}}\] \[Distance=velocity\times time\] Distance = area of trapezium Distance \[=\frac{1}{2}[(20+80)(40-30)]\text{ }m\] Distance\[=\frac{100\times 10}{2}=500\,m\]
