Graphs in practical situation

How do you calculate the distance from a given speed time graph?

• Calculate the area under the curve.

• speed multiplied by time.

• speed divided by time.

• find the gradient of the line.

Find the speed of this situations:

4 kilometres in 30 minutes

• 8 km/h
• 120km/h

• 2km/h

• 7.5km/h

How long is the train stopped for in total?

• 5 minutes

• 7.5 minutes

• 10 minutes

• 2.5 minutes

How far does the train travel in the first 10 minutes?

• 1.5 km

• 11.25 km

• 3.75 km

• 7.5 km

What does this graph represent?

• Constant Speed

• Deceleration

• Acceleration

• Not Moving

According to the graph, how far does the person travel in the first 5 seconds?

• 2m

• 0m

• 10m

• 5m

On a distance vs. time graph, the steeper the slope _____.

• the slower the speed

• less acceleration

• the faster the speed

• greater deceleration

Calculate the speed of the object in the first 5 seconds.

• 1 m/sec

• 3 m/sec

• 2 m/sec

• 6 m/sec

What type of speed does this graph represent?

• Constant Speed

• Increasing Speed

• At Rest

• Decreasing Speed

What is the speed of the object at 3 seconds?

• 5 m/s

• 5 s/m

• 45 m/s

• 45 s/m
