Question

how to find distance from its speed time graph?​

Answer 1

We know that speed = distance/time. From this equation, we can derive the formula for distance which is = speed * time. Now, always remember one thing. In a speed time graph of an object, the distance traveled by that object is always the area under the graph. By that, it means that the area under the figure that is formed as a result of the speed-time graph is the distance covered by that body.

You might wonder why this is so. This is due to the fact that the area under the graph is actually the product of the speed and time, which equates to the distance which we needed in the first place. Now in the following figure, lets consider the red trapezium. We can calculate the area of the trapezium by the formula, 1/2 sum of parallel sides* height. That is 1/2 (3+10) * 8. The answer is 52m. This is the total distance traveled by the body in the following speed time graph during the 10s.
