    Study Notes

    Distance Time Graphs

    • Distance-time graphs show the distance travelled by something over a period of time
    • The horizontal axis is time
    • The vertical axis is distance
    • A horizontal line means the object is stationary
    • A diagonal line means the object is moving with a constant speed
    • The steeper the line, the faster the object is travelling
    • The gradient of the line represents the speed of the object
    • Speed can be calculated by dividing the distance travelled by the time taken (s = d/t)
    • Average speed can be calculated by dividing the total distance travelled by the total time taken
    • Speed can be calculated from distance-time graph by measuring the gradient of the line using the formula gradient = change in y/ change in x

    Question 1

    • Edward drives from his home to London, stopping to visit Nicola on the way
    • The distance-time graph shows the journey
    • Edward was 40 miles from home when he visited Nicola
    • Edward stopped for 1 hour and 30 minutes

    Question 2

    • Ellie cycled from her home to her friend's house, stayed there, and then cycled home
    • Ellie left home at 9:05
    • While visiting her friend, Ellie was 8 kilometres from home
    • Ellie stayed at her friend's house for 15 minutes

    Question 3

    • Joseph travelled 15 kilometres from his home to his friend's house, stayed there, and returned home
    • Joseph left home at 14:10
    • At 14:30, Joseph was 10 kilometres from home
    • Joseph spent 20 minutes at his friend's house
    • Joseph travelled 30 kilometres in total

    Question 4

    • Anne cycled from Bristol to Salisbury
    • The distance-time graph shows her journey
    • Anne was 10 miles from Bristol at 08:00
    • Anne was stationary between 09:00 and 09:30
    • Anne's speed for the first two hours of her journey was 10 miles per hour

    Question 5

    • Henry ran a 100-metre race
    • The distance-time graph shows his race
    • Henry took 20 seconds to run 100 metres
    • Henry's average speed over the race was 5 metres per second
    • Helen completed the race in 16 seconds

    Question 6

    • Andrew travelled from his home to the gym and back
    • Andrew's speed for the first 30 minutes of his journey was 0.3 kilometres per hour
    • Andrew spent 40 minutes at the gym
    • Andrew travelled back home at 40 kilometres per hour

    Question 7

    • Rebecca rollerbladed from her home to the playground, rested there, and then rollerbladed home
    • It took Rebecca 6 minutes to rollerblade from her home to the playground
    • Rebecca spent 5 minutes resting at the park
    • Rebecca's speed travelling home was slower than her speed travelling to the park

    Question 8

    • Each sentence in the table describes one of the distance-time graphs
    • The graph that corresponds to each sentence is provided

    Question 9

    • The distance-time graph shows a train journey
    • The speed of the train on the last section of the journey was 0.67 miles per hour
    • The part of the journey where the train travelled fastest is between 40 minutes and 50 minutes
    • The train travelled faster between 40 minutes and 50 minutes because it travelled a longer distance in a shorter amount of time

    Question 10

    • Bethany drove to a family meal, stayed there, and then drove back home
    • The restaurant is 70 kilometres from Bethany's home
    • Bethany left home at 10:00 and arrived at the restaurant at 11:30

    • Bethany drove home at a speed of 35 kilometres per hour

    Question 11

    • Roy visited his aunt and then returned home
    • Roy started his journey at 2:10
    • Roy stopped for a rest at 2:50 pm for 20 minutes
    • Roy stayed with his aunt for 30 minutes
    • Roy's average speed on the journey home was 63.6 kilometres per hour
    • Roy travelled 140 kilometres in total

    Question 12

    • Orla walked from her home, stopped, and then walked back home
