NEET Physics Distance & Displacement MCQ Question
Consider a velocity-time graph for an object with uniform acceleration. If the initial velocity is zero, which area under the graph represents the displacement of the object over a time interval?
Area of the triangle formed under the graph
Area of the rectangle formed under the graph
Sum of the areas of the triangle and rectangle under the graph
Only the horizontal section of the graph
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
For an object with uniform acceleration and initial velocity zero, the area under the velocity-time graph is a triangle, representing the displacement.
