Ans8.

(a)

Time cannot be negative

t = 5 seconds.
(b) Position at t = 5 s At t = 0 s

Displacement at t = 5 s and t = 0s

(c) Acceleration at t = 5s

Ans9. (1) Displacement

Diving (0 – 4) s
S1 = area of OAB s

S1 = 15 4 = 60 m

(2) Displacement (0 – 8s)

S2 = S1 + area (CDEF)

S2 = 60 + (-5) 4 = 60 -20 = 40m

(3) Displacement (0 – 12s)
S3 = S1 + area (CDEF) + area (FGHI)

S3 = 60 – 20 + 40 = 80m
