A race car starting from rest moves along a straight track with an acceleration as shown in the graph (where for t 10 s, a = 8 m/s2). Determine the time t for the car to reach a speed of 50 m/s.

t = 11.25 s
t = 6.25 s
t = 12.5 s
t = 3.53 s

Its Simple>
in first 10 sec it reaches only 40 m/s=1/2*10*8(uniform acc)
in next 1.25 sec at constant acc.(v=u+at) it tends to 50 m/s.

Actually we want calculate and differentiating function, like ankith what he was explain.

Aishwarya Katale : Actually 40m/s its area under the curve. :-).

S=1/2 (8+0) 10.

Since initial velocity is zero. My guess.
