Question

The velocity time graph of an object is shown below.calculate the displacement of the body from 0to 15 seconds

Answer 1

Answer:

The velocity-time graph of a body is given below.

Find:

(i) The distance travelled by the body

(ii)The displacement of the body

Explanation:

(i) The distance travelled by the body is given as

(ii) The velocity is positive during OAB, negative during BCD and positive again during DEF. Thus, the displacement of the body is given as
