Based on the provided Velocity vs Time graph:
- The velocity starts at 10 meters per second at 0 seconds
- The velocity increases linearly to 60 meters per second at 5 seconds
Since displacement is the area under the velocity vs time graph, we can calculate the total displacement after 5 seconds as follows:
Find the average velocity over the 5 seconds:
(Final velocity + Initial velocity)/2
(60 + 10)/2 = 35 meters per second
The average velocity of 35 meters per second over 5 seconds gives a
total displacement of:
Displacement = Velocity * Time
= 35 meters/sec * 5 sec
= 175 meters
Therefore, according to the graph, the total displacement of the object after 5 seconds is 175 meters.
