A position-time graph for linear motion of an object in one dimension shows the object's displacement d from some origin at any given time t. If the graph is linear, its slope m is given by m="rise"/"run"="charge in d"/"charge in t"=(d_1-d_2)/(t_1-t_2)=barv, where barv is the average velocity of the object . (t_1,d_1) and (t_2,d_2) are any two points on the line. The graph above is a position time graph for a person who takes a walk from her house . Which of the following scenarios is consistent with the graph ? |

Answer» After 20 minutes the DISPLACEMENT of the person from her house is approximately 230 + 230 +410 + 900 =1770 m |
