The displacement of the object as determined from the velocity-time graph is 562.5 m.
<h3>What is a velocity-time graph?</h3>
A velocity-time graph is a graph of the velocity of an object plotted in the vertical or y-axis of the graph against the time taken on the horizontal or x-axis.
The displacement of an object can be obtained from its velocity-time graph by calculating the total area under the graph.
The total area under the graph = area of triangle + area of rectangle
Area of triangle = b*h/2 =
Area of triangle = 25 * (35 - 10)/2 = 312.5 m
Area of rectangle = l * b
Area of rectangle = 10 * 25 = 250 m
Total area = (312.5 + 250) m
Total area = 562.5 m
Therefore, the displacement of the object is 562.5 m
In conclusion, the total area of a velocity-time graph gives the displacement.

As per the question Bob drops the bag full with feathers from the top of the building.
The mass of the bag(m)= 1.0 lb
Let the air resistance is neglected.As the bag is under free fall ,hence the only force that acts on the bag is the force of gravity which is in vertical downward direction.
Here the acceleration produced on bag due to the free fall will be nothing else except the acceleration due to gravity i.e g =9.8 m/s^2
Here we are asked to calculate the distance travelled by the bag at the instant 1.5 s
Hence time t= 1.5 s
From equation of kinematics we know that -
S=ut + 0.5at^2 [ here S is the distance travelled]
For motion under free fall initial velocity (u)=0.
Hence S= 0×1.5+{0.5×(-9.8)×(1.5)^2}
⇒ -S =0-11.025 m
⇒ S= 11.025 m
=11 m
Here the negative sign is taken only due to the vertical downward motion of the body .we may take is positive depending on our frame of reference .
Hence the correct option is B.
