Equations of motion — practice question

A car moves with constant velocity. At time $t = 0$, the driver spots an obstacle in the road and then applies the brakes until the car comes to rest. The graph shows how the velocity of the car varies with $t$. How far does the car travel in the $5.0\,\text{s}$ after the driver sees the obstacle?

  • A$16\,\text{m}$
  • B$42\,\text{m}$
  • C$58\,\text{m}$
  • D$84\,\text{m}$
