Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. Show all your work for calculation-based questions.
1. What does the slope of a distance-time graph represent?
Acceleration
Velocity
Displacement
Time
2. A horizontal line on a velocity-time graph indicates:
Increasing acceleration
Constant velocity
Decreasing velocity
Zero velocity
3. The area under a velocity-time graph represents the of an object.
4. A steep slope on a distance-time graph indicates a speed.
5. Describe the motion of an object represented by a curved line on a distance-time graph.
6. Observe the distance-time graph below and answer the following questions:
a) During which time interval was the object moving at a constant speed?
b) Calculate the speed of the object between t = 0s and t = 1s.
7. A car accelerates uniformly from rest to 20 m/s in 5 seconds. Sketch a velocity-time graph for this motion.
