The velocity-time graph of a linear motion os shown figure. The distance from the starting point after `8 sec` is.

A

5 m

B

16 m

C

8 m

D

19 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Distance from the starting point is equal to displacement.
Displacement = area of `v-t` graph
=`(1)/(2)[4 + 2]4 - (1)/(2)[4 + 3] xx 2 = 5 m`
Here distance travelled is not asked, but the distance from the the starting point.
