Quick questions on Distance-time and velocity-time graphs - CCEA GCSE Physics
5short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.
What are distance-time graphs?Show answer
On a distance-time graph, time is on the horizontal axis and distance on the vertical axis.
What are velocity-time graphs?Show answer
On a velocity-time graph, time is on the horizontal axis and velocity on the vertical axis. These graphs carry two pieces of information.
What is q1?Show answer
What does the gradient of a velocity-time graph represent? [1 mark]
What is q2?Show answer
A velocity-time graph shows constant for . Find the distance travelled. [2 marks]
What is q3?Show answer
A car covers at constant speed shown by a straight distance-time line spanning . Find its speed. [2 marks]
