For a physics demonstration at Yudgam Foundation, a student tracks a particle whose velocity curve forms a region bounded by y = |x − 3| and the x-axis from x = 0 to x = 6. What is the total distance (area)?

For a physics demonstration at Yudgam Foundation, a student tracks a particle whose velocity curve forms a region bounded by y = |x − 3| and the x-axis from x = 0 to x = 6. What is the total distance (area)?

• A. 9
• B. 18
• C. 6
• D. 4.5

Answer: A) 9

Explanation: Graph forms two right triangles of base 3 and height 3. Area = 2 × (1/2 × 3 × 3) = 9 units.
