Practice Questions
Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
A delivery van's velocity-time graph shows a steady speed of 60 km/h for 3 hours. Calculate the total distance traveled.
[3 marks]2.
Plot a velocity-time graph for a cyclist accelerating from 0 km/h to 20 km/h over 4 hours. Use the grid properly.
[4 marks]3.
A company's delivery truck's velocity drops from 50 km/h to 0 km/h over 2 hours. What is the average deceleration if it slows evenly?
[3 marks]4.
A graph shows a constant velocity of 80 km/h for 5 hours. How far did the vehicle travel?
[3 marks]5.
Explain what a steep slope on a velocity-time graph indicates about the vehicle's movement.
[4 marks]6.
A truck accelerates uniformly from 10 km/h to 50 km/h over 4 hours. Sketch the graph and determine the acceleration rate.
[4 marks]7.
A business monitors a delivery drone that maintains a speed of 30 km/h for 2 hours, then speeds up to 60 km/h over the next 1 hour. Draw the velocity-time graph.
[4 marks]8.
A fleet of vehicles are analyzed. Vehicle A maintains a constant speed of 70 km/h, while Vehicle B accelerates from 50 km/h to 90 km/h over 3 hours. Which vehicle covers more distance in 3 hours? Show your work.
[4 marks]9.
Identify and correct the mistake: A graph shows a slope of zero while the vehicle is moving. What does this imply and is it possible? Explain.
[4 marks]10.
A delivery service notices that their velocity-time graph has a steep incline during the morning, then flattens out. What does this tell us about their delivery schedule?
