Answer 2

Answer:

8m, 16m

Explanation:

Area under u-t graph gives the distance, if we put mod over the areas. In this graph,

Area of 3 rectangles sum up to 16m, giving the distance, and sum of the two rectangles above x-axis subtracted by the area under x-axis gives the displacement.

So your answer has to be-

distance-16m,

displacement-8m
