Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
A vehicle travels at a constant speed of 60 km/h for 2 hours. Calculate the distance traveled.
[2 marks]
2.
A cyclist accelerates uniformly from 10 km/h to 30 km/h over 5 minutes. If the acceleration is constant, what is the total distance traveled during this time?
[3 marks]
3.
Plot the graph of y=2x over the range x=0 to x=5. Use the grid to draw the line.
[2 marks]
4.
A car's velocity-time graph shows a constant velocity of 50 km/h for 4 hours, then a gradual decrease to 0 km/h over the next 2 hours. Sketch a plausible velocity-time graph on the grid.
[3 marks]
5.
Calculate the distance covered when a vehicle accelerates uniformly from 0 to 30 km/h in 10 minutes. Assume constant acceleration.
[3 marks]
6.
A runner maintains a speed of 8 m/s for 15 minutes. How far does the runner travel? Show your working.
[3 marks]
7.
A velocity-time graph shows a vehicle traveling at 40 km/h for 3 hours, then at 20 km/h for 2 hours. What is the total distance traveled?
[2 marks]
8.
A boat accelerates from 0 to 15 m/s over 5 minutes. Construct a velocity-time graph representing this motion and determine the total distance traveled.
[4 marks]
9.
A person walks at 1.2 m/s for 30 minutes, then jogs at 3 m/s for 15 minutes. Calculate the total distance walked and jogged.
[3 marks]
10.
Identify and correct the mistake in this student's solution: 'Since the velocity is constant at 50 km/h for 3 hours, the distance is 50 × 3 = 150 km.'
[2 marks]
11.
A car accelerates uniformly from 10 m/s to 30 m/s over 20 seconds. Find the total distance traveled during this acceleration.
[3 marks]
