$A$ particle starts from rest at $x=0 \, m$ with an acceleration of $1 \, m/s^2$. At $t = 5 \, s$,it receives an additional acceleration in the same direction as its motion. At $t = 10 \, s$,its speed and position are $v$ and $x$,respectively. Had the additional acceleration not been provided,its speed and position would have been $v_0$ and $x_0$,respectively. It is found that $x - x_0 = 12.5 \, m$. Then one can conclude that $v - v_0$ is .............. $m/s$.

$A$ particle starts moving from rest in a straight line with constant acceleration. After time $t_0$,the acceleration changes its sign (becomes exactly opposite to the initial direction),while remaining the same in magnitude. Determine the time from the beginning of the motion at which the particle returns to its initial position.
