Question

Sketch a speed-time graph for distance travel by a moving object? OR What would be the shape of a speed-time graph for distance travel by a moving object?

Accepted Answer

Distance traveled by a moving object:

The area under a speed-time graph represents the distance traveled by the object. If the motion is uniform then the area can be calculated using the appropriate formula for geometrical shapes represented by the graph.
