The distance travelled is given by x=(t−2)2 = t2–4t+4
As velocity is given by v = dx/dt
v=2t−4
Distance covered=∫∣v∣dt
=∣t2–4t∣
=4t−t2 for t= 0 to2
=t2−4t for t=2 to 4
= 8 units
The displacement of a particle is given by x=(t−2)2 where x is in metres and t is in seconds. The distance covered by the particle in first 4 seconds is
