The diagram below is a velocity- time graph of a moving object. Calculate the distance travelled when the acceleration is zero.

  • A. 300 m
  • B. 90 m
  • C. 150 m
  • D. 210 m

Correct Answer: C. 150 m

Explanation

The acceleration is between the times 3 secs and 8 secs.

Distance = \(velocity \times time\)

= \(30 \times (8 - 3) = 30 \times 5\)

= \(150 m\)
