For a vehicle moving in a straight line, which one of the following physical quantities could be determined by finding the gradient of its velocity-time graph?

2

The velocity-time graph represents the movement of a train on a straight horizontal track. What is the average speed in m.s-1, of the object for the interval 0 s to 15 s?
Hint: First determine the total displacement.

2

Which of the following acceleration time graphs represents a free falling object?

2

The velocity-time graph represents the motion of a motor car which begins to move in an easterly direction.


The car moves in a westerly direction between ....

A steel ball rolls from rest down a ramp with a constant acceleration. Which one of the following displacement-time graphs bests represents the relationship between the displacement and the time corectly? (Friction is negligible and can therefore be ignored)
NOTE: "s" is the old symbol used to represent displacement

The motion of two objects, A and B, is shown in the displacement-time graph.

NOTE: "s" is the old symbol used to represent displacement
The graph shows that:
