Question

The speed-time graph of a particle moving along a solid cover is shown below. The distance traversed by the particle from $t=0$ to $t=3$ is:-

• A. $\frac{9}{2}m$
• B. $\frac{9}{4}m$
• C. $\frac{10}{3}m$
• D. $\frac{10}{5}m$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$\frac{9}{4}m$

Distance covered is equal to the area under the graph in given interval of time.

$\Rightarrow Distance=area=\frac{1}{2}\times 3\times 1.5=\frac{9}{4}m$

Thereefore, B is correct option.
