Question

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

• A. $1: 2$
• B. $1: 4$
• C. $1: 3$
• D. $1: 1$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$1: 3$

Answer 2

The correct answer is (C) : $1: 3$
Displacement =Σ area =16−8+16−8=16m
Distance =Σ∣ area ∣=48m
Distance displacement ​=31​
