Question
The area under velocity – time graph represents the ______
Options
velocity of the moving object.
displacement covered by the moving object.
speed of the moving object.
acceleration of the moving object

Solution
The area under velocity – time graph represents the displacement covered by the moving object.
Explanation:
The area under a velocity-time graph represents the displacement of the moving object. This is because:
Displacement = Velocity × Time
In a velocity-time graph, the product of velocity and time is graphically represented by the area under the curve.
