A material particle is moving along a straight line in such a manner that its velocity varies as shown in the figure. At which moment in time numbered successively on the time axis will the acceleration of the particle be maximal? How should one use the graph to determine the average velocity of motion over the time interval from t1 to t2 ?

The velocity of a particle moving in a straight line varies with time in such a manner that the v vs. t curve is represented by one half of an ellipse. The maximal velocity is vm and the total time of motion is t. What is the path traversed by the particle and the average velocity over t ? Can such motion actually occur?
