Graphs of Motion

The motion of an airplane is represented by velocity-time graph as shown below. The distance covered by airplane in the first 30.5 second is ̱_______ km.

Figure

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Distance = area under the vv-tt graph.
  2. 0 to 2 s (trapezium): 12(200+400)×2=600 m\frac{1}{2}(200 + 400)\times 2 = 600\text{ m}
  3. 2 s to 30.5 s (rectangle): 400×28.5=11400 m400\times 28.5 = 11400\text{ m}
  4. Total =12000 m=12 km= 12000\text{ m} = 12\text{ km}. So the answer is (a).
