The velocity time graph of a body moving in a straight line is shown in figure.The ratio of displacement to distance travelled by the body in time $0$ to $10\,s$ is

A

$1: 1$

B

$1: 4$

C

$1: 2$

D

$1: 3$

Solution

$Displacement=\Sigma \text { area }=16-8+16-8=16\,m$

$Distanc =\Sigma \mid \text { area } \mid=48\,m$

$\frac{\text { displacement }}{\text { Distance }}=\frac{1}{3}$
