Question

What is the unit which is used for the area under a velocity-time graph?

Answer 1

The displacement is the area under a velocity-time graph.

Explanation:

1. If an item is moving backward, its velocity can be negative. It's possible that the displacement is too negative.
2. A negative number exists beneath the x-axis.
3. A positive value exists in an area above the x-axis.
4. While measuring the overall displacement, be careful not to combine the plus and minus signs of the displacements when totaling them.

The graph of the v-t graph is shown below:

1. If the graph can be broken down into simple geometric frames, the total area beneath the line can be computed by adding the areas of those shapes together.
2. A velocity-time graph is required to determine the displacement when the velocity is not constant.
3. Velocity is usually drawn on the vertical axis, whereas time is drawn on the horizontal axis.
4. The displacement is described in the area below a velocity-time graph.
5. If the area is up a time interval, the area under the graph constrained by the time interval can be used to determine the displacement during that interval.
6. The displacement is measured in the area beneath a velocity-time graph, and the meter is the unit of measurement.
