4.01: Constant-acceleration velocity graph

0606/12/F/M/26 — Question 3 · 3 marks

In this question, time \(t\) is in seconds and displacement \(s\) is in metres. A particle starts from rest at the origin \(O\) and moves in a straight line with constant positive acceleration. When \(t=4\), \(s=6\).
(a)
Draw the velocity-time graph for \(0\leqslant t\leqslant4\).
[2]
(b)
Hence find the acceleration.
