Question

How can you get the distance travelled by an object from its speed-time graph.​

Answer 1

Answer:

finding the area under the curve

you can check it this way too

speed * time = distance

thus area under the curve would give distance

Explanation:

Answer 2

Area of the distance can be derived using the speed - time graph by finding the area under the graph.

The area under the graph gives us the distance travelled when speed and time are plotted in y and x axises.

Similarly :-

The area under the graph of velocity - time graph gives us the displacement.

Since,

Distance = Speed *Time

And

Displacement = Velocity * Time

Thus,

Area under the graph gives displacement and distances.

The area can be found by breaking the graph into various shapes of know area formula and by finding the coordinates and putting the values and solving.

This is how we can calculate the distance travelled by any object from its speed time graph.

Also,

We can find acceleration of the graph using the slope of the graph and various other things.

Graph can also tell the nature of the object's motion and give a lot more information..
