NEET Physics Distance & Displacement MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11

Consider a velocity-time graph of an object moving with uniform acceleration, where the line starts at point O and ends at point B. The area under this graph between instants 0 and t is divided into two regions: a rectangle and a triangle. What does the area of the triangle represent?

Question diagram
A

The change in displacement during time t

B

The total displacement during time t

C

The initial velocity of the object

D

The average velocity during time t

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In the velocity-time graph for uniform acceleration, the area under the graph represents displacement. The area of the triangle represents the change in displacement due to acceleration.
