Given is a speed-time graph. The area under the curve will give the distance travelled by the car.

In time t= 4\ s, the distance travelled by the car will be equal to the area under the curve from x = 0\ to\ x=4

Considering this part of the graph as a quarter of a circle whose radius = 4 unit.

Therefore, required area = \frac{1}{4}\pi r^2 = \frac{1}{4}\pi (4)^2 = 12.56\ m

Therefore, distance the car travelled in the first 4 seconds is 12.56\ m
