The diagram below shows a velocity time graph representing the motion of a car. Find the total distance covered during the acceleration and retardation of the motion
- A. 75m
- B. 150m
- C. 300m
- D. 375m
Correct Answer: D. 375m
Explanation
Total Distance covered is the Area of the Trapezium
Area of the Trapezium = \(\frac{1}{2}\) X ( sum of parallel sides ) X height
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) X ( 30 + 45 ) X 10
: S = 375m
