Question

The graph represents the movement of a body accelerating from rest.

After 5 seconds how far has the body moved?

Solution

To determine how far the body has moved after 5 seconds, we generally need to know the acceleration and the time. However, since the problem references a graph that isn't provided, I will outline the typical analysis steps you would follow if you had a velocity-time graph or an acceleration-time graph.

  1. Break Down the Problem

    1. Identify the type of graph provided (velocity-time or acceleration-time).
    2. Determine the area under the graph (in the case of velocity) or use the equations of motion (in the case of acceleration) to find the distance.
  2. Relevant Concepts

    1. For a velocity-time graph, the distance travelled can be calculated by finding the area under the curve within the given time frame.
    2. For an acceleration-time graph, use the equations of motion:
      • s=ut+12at2 s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a t^2 where u u is the initial velocity, a a is acceleration, and t t is time.
  3. Analysis and Detail

    1. If it is a velocity-time graph, calculate the area geometrically (using triangles, rectangles, etc.).
    2. If it is an acceleration-time graph, determine if acceleration is constant or changing:
      • For constant acceleration, use the equation above with u=0 u = 0 (since the body starts from rest).
      • With a known value of a a , substitute into the formula for s s .
  4. Verify and Summarize

    • Ensure the calculations are correct, double-check areas calculated, or the values substituted into equations of motion.

Final Answer

Without the specific graph or values for acceleration, I can't provide a numeric final answer. Please provide the necessary details for precise computation.
