The velocity time graph for the first six seconds is given below:
 
 
(i) Deceleration is given as the slope of the graph for the first 3 seconds.
 
begin mathsize 14px style deceleration space straight a equals slope equals fraction numerator 0 minus 30 over denominator 3 minus 0 end fraction equals fraction numerator negative 30 over denominator 3 end fraction equals negative 10 space straight m divided by straight s squared end style
 
(ii) Acceleration is given as the slope of the graph for the last 3 seconds.
 
begin mathsize 14px style Acceleration space straight a equals slope equals fraction numerator 30 minus 0 over denominator 6 minus 3 end fraction equals 30 over 3 equals 10 space straight m divided by straight s squared end style
 
(iii) Total distance covered is given as the area under the curve.
 
begin mathsize 14px style straight d equals area equals 1 half cross times 3 cross times 30 plus 1 half cross times 3 cross times 30 equals 3 cross times 30 equals 90 space straight m end style
 
(iv) Average velocity is given as 
 
begin mathsize 14px style straight v subscript av equals fraction numerator Total space displacement over denominator Total space time end fraction equals 0 as space displacement space is space zero space since space the space ball space comes space back space to space th space thrower. end style
