A body \(A\) moves with a uniform acceleration \(a\) and zero initial velocity. Another body \(B\), starts from the same point and moves in the same direction with a constant velocity \(v\). The two bodies meet after a time \(t\). The value of \(t\) is: 

1. \(\dfrac{2v}{a}\)
 
2. \(\dfrac{v}{a}\)

3. \(\dfrac{v}{2a}\)

4. \(\sqrt{\dfrac{v}{2a}}\)

A car starts from rest and moves with uniform acceleration \(a\) on a straight road from time \(t = 0\) to \(t = T\). After that, a constant deceleration brings it to rest. In this process, the average speed of the car is: 

1. \(\dfrac{aT}{4}\)

2. \(\dfrac{3aT}{2}\)

3. \(\dfrac{aT}{2}\)

4. \(aT\)
