1. a) This is the distance-time graph of a car: Part "a" shows...

[1]

Constant acceleration Constant speed Constant deceleration

b) At part "b" the car is...

[1]

Moving at a steady speed Not moving

The car isn't moving.

c) At "c" the car is...

[1]

Accelerating Decelerating

The car is accelerating

2. Which has a direction?

[1]

Speed Velocity

Velocity has direction

3. a) What is the unit for speed?

[1]

m/s m/s2

The unit for speed is m/s

b) What is the unit for acceleration?

[1]

m/s m/s2

The unit for acceleration is m/s²

4. A golf cart can accelerate at 0.5 m/s2. How long does it take the cart to go from 0 m/s to 1.5 m/s?

[2]

1.5/0.5 = 3 seconds

5. a) Kieran's golf cart can go from 0 m/s to 2 m/s in 20 seconds. How fast can the cart accelerate?

[2]

a = (v-u)/t = 2/20 = 0.1 m/s²

b) James' golf cart has been pimped. It can go from 0 m/s to 2.5 m/s in 20 seconds. How fast can James' cart accelerate? Give your answer to 3.d.p.

[2]

a = (v-u)/t = 2.5/20 = 0.125 m/s²

6. This is the speed-time graph of a rocket: How fast can this rocket accelerate?

[2]

a = (v-u)/t = 100/5 = 20 m/s²
