Q.I) Multiple choice questions. Tick the correct answer from the options given below.
1.
The diagram shows the speed-time graph for an object moving at constant
speed. (0625_s04_qp_1 - 3)
stops at R.
What is used to find the distance travelled after he applies the brakes?
(0625_w06_qp_1 2)
A. the area under line PQ
B. the area under line QR
C. the gradient of line PQ
D. the gradient of line QR
5. The speed-time graph shown is for a bus travelling between stops.
Where on the graph is the acceleration of the bus the greatest? (0625_s08_qp_1
-2(B))
6. An object moves initially with constant speed and then with constant
acceleration.
Which graph shows this motion? (0625_s11_qp_11 2())
(a) Which part, or parts, of Fig. 1.1 indicate when the object is
(i) travelling at uniform speed,
........................................................................................... [1]
(ii) accelerating?
................................................................................................................. [1]
(iii) decelerating?
................................................................................................................. [1]
(b) Calculate the distance travelled in the last 15 s.
Fig 2.1
(i) For the time interval between 40 s and 100 s, calculate the distance travelled by the train.
distance = ...........................................................[2]
(ii) The train stops for 80 s, then accelerates to 30 m / s with an acceleration of 0.60 m / s2. It
then travels at constant speed.
Complete the graph for the interval 100 s to 280 s, showing your calculations in the space
below.
3. A family goes on holiday in a car. To stop the journey being boring for the children, every
half an hour they note down the distance they have travelled since they left home.
They then plot the graph shown in Fig. 3.1. (0625_s13_qp_21 5)
Fig. 3.1.
The first half hour and the last half hour of their journey are on small roads. The rest of
the journey is on major roads.
Answer the following questions using information from Fig. 3.1.
(a) For how many hours were they travelling on major roads?
time = ........................................ hours
