MCQ
Area under a speed - time graph gives:
  • A
    The time taken by a moving object.
  • B
    The distance travelled by a moving object.
  • C
    The acceleration of a moving object.
  • D
    The retardation of a moving object.

Answer

  1. The distance travelled by a moving object.

Explanation:

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.
