Question

State how the vilocity time graph can be used to find i. The accelaretion of a body ,ii. The distance travellel by the body in a given time .

Answer 1

Answer:

The net area(considering both positive and negative areas) between the line and the time axis of the velocity-time graph is equal to the magnitude of displacement of the object.

When all areas are taken as positive then the total area under the velocity-time graph gives the distance covered by the body in a 1-d motion.
