Rectilinear Movement

2.2 Uniform movement: area under the v/t curve

The area under the v/t curve coincides with the displacement of the moving body.

More than a coincidence this is a law:

"The area under the v/t graph always coincides with the space covered by the moving body".

The figure formed between the v/t graph and the time axis is a rectangle.
As the area of a rectangle is base x height, we can say that in any uniform rectilinear movement:

Equation you can apply to any Uniform Movement.
