Detailed Solution

The velocity–time graph shown is a straight line which indicates a uniform motion with a constant velocity, of 20 m/s. 

Displacement can be calculated as the area under the graph. 

The displacement covered in 15 sec is calculated as:

Displacement = v ×t

                             = 20 × 15 = 300 m
