Distance-time graphs show distance from a fixed point at different times. Distance is on the vertical axis, and time is on the horizontal axis. The gradient of the graph is the speed. A positive gradient represents the object (or person) moving away from the starting point.
18.2 Calculating Speed, Distance and Time In this section we extend the ideas of speed to calculating distances and times, using the following formulae: Speed = Distance Time Distance =Speed Time× Time = Distance Speed Example 1 Jane drives at an average speed of 45 mph on a journey of 135 miles. How long does the journey take? Solution Time ...

Question 1: Calculate the average speeds for each of the following, without using a calculator. (a) A car travels 60 miles in 2 hours (b) A lorry travels 120 miles in 3 hours
Speed-time graphs. In a speed-time graph speed is always plotted on the vertical axis and time is always plotted on the horizontal. This represents the motion of a particle accelerating from a speed at time 0 0, u u, to a speed v v at time t t.
Distant-time graphs The graph, above, is a distance-time graph for a car journey. We can see that the motion of the car changes with time. For section A, the car travels a distance of 20m in a time of 50 seconds. From this we can calculate the speed of the car: $%&&'= ')$*+,-& *).& = 20 50 =0.40./$ For section B, the car doesn’t move any ...
