(N/A) If the speed-time graph is a straight line parallel to the time axis,it indicates that the speed of the object remains constant over time.
This type of motion is known as uniform motion,where the acceleration of the object is zero.

$A$ driver of a car travelling at $52\, km\, h^{-1}$ applies the brakes and accelerates uniformly in the opposite direction. The car stops in $5\, s$. Another driver going at $3\, km\, h^{-1}$ in another car applies his brakes slowly and stops in $10\, s$. On the same graph paper,plot the speed versus time graphs for the two cars. Which of the two cars travelled farther after the brakes were applied?
