Question

3. A body is moving in a straight line and it
displacement at various instants of time is give
in the following table :
Time (s) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Displacement (m) 2 6 12 12 12 18 22 24
Plot displacement-time graph and calculate
(i) total distance traveller
(ii) average velocity​

Answer 1

disp =2+6+12+12+12+18+22+24=108
avg vel =108÷8=13.5m/s

Answer 2

Explanation:

Total distance=108m

Average velocity=Total displacement/total time

=108÷7

=15.42 m/s
