(i) In the region OA: velocity increases uniformly with time, and hence OA represents uniform acceleration.

In the region AB: the body is moving with constant speed, and hence moving with zero acceleration.
In the region BC: velocity decreases uniformly with time, and hence BC represents uniform retardation.
 
(ii) Acceleration of the body during OA begin mathsize 12px style equals fraction numerator 6 space minus space 0 over denominator 4 space minus space 0 end fraction equals 1.5 space straight m divided by straight s squared end style 
 As in the region BC velocity decreases uniformly with time; hence there is retardation.
Thus, retardation of the body during BC begin mathsize 12px style equals fraction numerator 6 space minus space 0 over denominator 16 space minus space 10 end fraction equals 1 space straight m divided by straight s squared end style
