Question
A body is moving uniformly in a straight line with a velocity of 5 m/s. Find graphically the distance covered by it in 5 seconds.

Solution
We have to calculate the distance travelled by the moving body whose speed time graph is given to us.
Distance travelled = Area of rectangle OABC
So, distance travelled,
= (OA)(OC)
= (5)(5) m
= 25 m
