The diagram shows the displacement-time graph for a particle moving in a straight line. Find the average velocity for the interval from t = 0 to t = 5 s.

Question

The diagram shows the displacement-time graph for a particle moving in a straight line. Find the average velocity for the interval from t = 0 to t = 5 s. (A) -2 ms-1 (B) 2 ms-1 (C) -4 ms-1 (D) 4 ms-1

Displacement = -10 - 0 = -10 Average velocity = (-10/5)= - 2 m/s

Q. The diagram shows the displacement-time graph for a particle moving in a straight line. Find the average velocity for the interval from $t = 0$ to $t = 5 s$ .

$- 2 m s^{- 1}$

$2 m s^{- 1}$

$- 4 m s^{- 1}$

$4 m s^{- 1}$

Displacement $= - 10 - 0 = - 10$

Average velocity $= \frac{- 10}{5} = - 2 m / s$
