Question

What is obtained from the area under the velocity-time graph?

Answer 1

Velocity-time graph:

1. The area under the velocity-time graph represents the displacement traveled by the object in a given time interval.
2. The distance is represented by the area under a speed-time graph. Speed and distance cannot both be negative. This is due to the fact that speed and distance are scalars.
3. The displacement is represented by the area under a velocity-time graph.
4. When the velocity is negative, so is the area under the curve.
