Question

A body is moving uniformly in a straight line with a velocity of 5m/s find graphically the distance covered by it in 5sec?

Answer 1

since we know......distance in veocity time graph is given by area

Answer 2

Answer:

The graphical representation of the distance covered in 5 seconds is shown.

Explanation:

X- axis denotes time (seconds) and Y- axis denotes distance covered by body moving uniformly in a straight line in meters.

Velocity = distance/Time

Distance at time 1 second = Velocity x time = 5 x 1 = 5 meter

Distance traveled at 2 seconds = 5 x 2 = 10 meter

Hence graphically we plot distance traveled at time = 1,2, 3, 4, & 5 Seconds

We have found out that body has traveled 25 meter in 5 seconds from graph.
