11 (a) A particle P moves in a straight line. Starting from rest, P moves with constant acceleration for
30 seconds after which it moves with constant velocity, k ms−1, for 90 seconds. P then moves
with constant deceleration until it comes to rest; the magnitude of the deceleration is twice the
magnitude of the initial acceleration.
