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
