Assessment: WAEC SSCE - Physics - 2011 (Objective) Subject: Physics

Question 1 Report

The area under a velocity-time graph represents
Answer Details
The area under a velocity-time graph represents the distance covered by an object. Velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time. Therefore, the area under the velocity-time graph is equal to the displacement covered by the object during the given time interval. This is because the area under the graph is the product of the time interval and the average velocity during that time interval, which is equal to the distance traveled. So, the correct option is "distance covered".
