$(a)$ $a=$ slope of $v-t$ graph $=\frac{40-20}{4-2}=\frac{20}{2}$
$=10 m s ^{-2}$
$(b)$ $2$ second
$(c)$ Car $A : 390 m ,$ Car $B : 320 m$
Distance $=$ Area under $v-t$ graph
Car $B$ $x=\frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 80=320 m$
Car $A$ $x=\left(\frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 60\right)+(60 \times 5)$
$=90+300$
$=390 m$
$(d)$ Car $B,$ $20 m$
