Question
The area of the right triangle under a speed-time graph is 500 m, in a time interval of 20 s. What is the speed of the body? Is the motion uniform or non-uniform?

Solution
Yes the motion is uniform and the uniform speed is given by area under speed time graph divided by time interval.
So speed = 500/20 =25 m/s.
