Practise interpreting velocity-time graphs to find acceleration, distance, speed and turning points.
A car starts from rest and accelerates at 2 ms−2 for 10 s . It then travels at a constant speed for 30 s . The car then uniformly decelerates to rest over a period of 20 s .
Sketch a velocity-time graph for the motion of the car.
Trapezium on the t-axis starting at ( 0,0 )
Fully correct with correct labels
With height 20, intersecting the t-axis at 60, horizontal line segment between 10 and 40.
Axis need not be labelled with t and v but if they are they must be correct. If not labelled, then must assume t is on the horizontal axis.
