CAIE A-Level Mathematics AS 4.2.2 Complex Loci Questions question 1

[Maximum number: 2]

A car starts from rest and accelerates at 2 ms−22 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2} for 10 s . It then travels at a constant speed for 30 s . The car then uniformly decelerates to rest over a period of 20 s .

Sketch a velocity-time graph for the motion of the car.
