(i) The line OP, i.e. the first 4 seconds indicates uniform speed. Thus the speed of the object during this time interval will be the slope of line OP.

  begin mathsize 12px style equals fraction numerator 75 minus 0 over denominator 4 minus 0 end fraction equals 18.75 space straight m divided by straight s end style

(ii) PQ is parallel to time axis, so speed is zero. Thus, the object is stationary between the time interval 14 s to 4 s.

   Thus, the object is stationary for 14 - 4 = 10 s.
