Answer:

Option C. 30 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph given in the question above,

At t = 1 s,

The displacement of the car is 10 m

At t = 4 s

The displacement of the car is 40 m

Thus, we can simply calculate the displacement of the car between t = 1 and t = 4 by calculating the difference in the displacement at the various time. This is illustrated below:

Displacement at t = 1 s (d1) = 10 m

Displacement at t= 4 s (d2) = 40

Displacement between t = 1 and t = 4 (ΔD) =?

ΔD = d2 – d1

ΔD = 40 – 10

ΔD = 30 m.

Therefore, the displacement of the car between t = 1 and t = 4 is 30 m.
