Q1Kinematics of Motion in a Straight LineFree sample

A woman walks in a straight line. The woman’s velocity tt seconds after passing through a fixed point AA on the line is v m s1v\text{ m s}^{-1}. The graph of vv against tt consists of 4 straight line segments (see diagram). The woman is at the point BB when t=60t = 60. Find

(i)

the woman’s acceleration for 0<t<300 < t < 30 and for 30<t<4030 < t < 40,
