(a) The time taken by P is the least among the four runners. It is more than 2% hours, while the other runners took
more time to cover the same distance. Hence, P ran the fastest
(6) When a body moves with constant speed, the change in position of the body remains the same for a particular

(4) Statements (A), (B) and (C) are incomect according to the given graph. A takes more time than B. So, their speeds
are different. Next, the slope for A and B is a straight line, hence B moves with uniform speed. Finally, it is B and
not A who completes the journey early. B overtook A at 11.20 am.
(c} The motion of a pendulum is a periodic event which can be used to measure time or the duration between two
events,
