Question

4) The speed-time graph of a particle moving along a fixed direction is shown
in Figure. Obtain the distance traversed by the particle between (a) t = 0 s to
4 s, (b) t = 0 s to 16 s.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

distance covered is given by area under the graph

(a) distance covered in 0 to 4 seconds= area of triangle AOE =0.5*4*6=12m

(b) distance covered in o to 16 seconds = area of trapezium AOCB=0.5(16+6)*6=66m
