Solution :-
Considering an object in uniform motion, its velocity-time graph can be represented as follows.
Now, the area below the velocity-time graph is the area of the rectangle OABC, which is given by
OA*OC. But OA is the velocity of the object and OC represents time. Therefore, the shaded area can be represented as:
Area under the velocity-time graph = velocity*time.
Substituting the value of velocity as \( \frac{displacement}{time}\) in the previous equation, it is found that the area under the velocity-time graph represents the total displacement of the object.
