Solution:

  1. Key Idea Area under the velocity-time curve represents displacement.

To get exact position at t=5s, we need to calculate area of the shaded part in the curve as shown below

Displacement of particle = Area of triangle OPA+ Area of square PABSP+ Area of rectangle QBCRQ

=12×2×2+(2×2)+(3×1)=2+4+3=9m
