Question 17 NECO • 2017 • PHYSICS • objective

A particle of mass \(0.50\)\,kg moves along a straight line. Its velocity‑time graph is described as follows: from \(t=0\)\,s to \(t=4\)\,s the velocity increases uniformly from \(2.0\)\,m\,s⁻¹ to \(6.0\)\,m\,s⁻¹; from \(t=4\)\,s to \(t=8\)\,s the velocity remains constant at \(6.0\)\,m\,s⁻¹. (i) Determine the total distance travelled between \(t=0\) and \(t=8\)\,s. (ii) Find the magnitude of the particle's average acceleration over the whole 8‑s interval. (iii) Calculate the increase in the particle's kinetic energy during the motion.
