Distance against time graphs distance No movement? time
Constant speed? distance The gradient of a distance vs time graph gives the speed time
Constant speed distance How would the graph look different for a faster constant speed? time
Constant speed faster distance slower time
Acceleration = change in speed (in m/s) (in m/s 2) time taken (in s)
Getting faster? (accelerating) distance time
A car accelerating from stationary start and then hitting a wall… distance time
Speed against time graphs speed No movement? time
Constant speed? speed time
Faster Constant speed fast time
Getting faster? (accelerating) speed Constant acceleration The gradient of a speed vs time graph gives the acceleration time
Getting faster? (accelerating) speed The area under the graph gives the distance travelled time
A stone dropped from a tall cliff (no air resistance) speed Area = height of building time
Be careful! speed distance time
No movement speed distance time
Constant speed distance time Area = distance travelled time
Constant acceleration speed distance time Area = distance travelled time
Non Constant acceleration speed distance time Area = distance travelled time
