JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 2. motion in straight line

The velocity time graph of a body moving in a straight line is shown in figure.The ratio of displacement to distance travelled by the body in time \(0\) to \(10\,s\) is

  1. A \(1: 1\)
  2. B \(1: 4\)
  3. C \(1: 2\)
  4. D \(1: 3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(1: 3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Displacement=\Sigma \text { area }=16-8+16-8=16\,m\) \(Distanc =\Sigma \mid \text { area } \mid=48\,m\) \(\frac{\text { displacement }}{\text { Distance }}=\frac{1}{3}\)
