*Graph is attached with the answer*
Answer:
Total distance traveled by the car is 40 m
Explanation:
It can be seen from the graph that for the first 4 second car is moving with uniform acceleration and for next 2 second it has constant velocity
So, we solved this question in 2 parts
Part 1:
initial velocity = v₁ = 0 m/s
final velocity = v₂ = 10 m/s
time = t = 4 s
acceleration = a = (v₂ - v₁)/t
a = 10/4 = 2.5 m/s²
Using 3rd equation of motion
2as = v₂² - v₁²
2(2.5)s = 10²
s₁ = 100/5
s₁ = 20 m
Part 2:
s₂ = v₂t
s₂ = 10 × 2
s₂ = 20 m
Total distance = S = s₁ + s₂
= 20 + 20
S = 40 m
