MCQ
Area under a speed $-$ time graph gives:
- AThe time taken by a moving object.
- ✓The distance travelled by a moving object.
- CThe acceleration of a moving object.
- DThe retardation of a moving object.
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
The distance travelled by a moving object.
The area under the velocity $-$ time graph gives the distance traveled by a moving object during that time interval.
While the area under the velocity$-$time graph gives displacement of the particle.
While the area under the velocity$-$time graph gives displacement of the particle.
