Solution

The correct option is B Displacement
The area under a velocity-time graph gives the displacement of the object.

In the graph shown, the area under the curve is shaded in blue, and is equal to the displacement of the object.
So, displacement (s) is given by:
s=Ar(ABCDE)
s=Ar(ABCD)+Ar(ADE)
