$$S_0=0m$$
$S_5=S_0+A[ABGF] \\ S_5=0+5×5 \\ S_5=25 m$
$S_{15} = s_5+A[BDE]+A[BDHG] \\ S_{15} =25+\dfrac 12×10×15+10×5 \\ S_{15}=150 m$
a = (slope V. t Curve)
For 0 to 5 sec
a=slope $= \dfrac {v_2-v_1}{t_2-t_1} \\ = \dfrac {5-5}{5-0} \\ =0$
For 5 to 15 sec
a=slope $=\dfrac {v_2-v_1}{t_2-t_1 }= \dfrac {20-5}{15-5}=1.5 m/s$
