CAIE IGCSE Physics Qualitative Motion from Graphs

Practise identifying rest, constant speed, acceleration and deceleration from data, ticker spacing and the shape or gradient of distance-time and speed-time graphs.

Syllabus
2026–2028
Course
Physics 0625

Exam points

  • identify rest or constant speed from zero or constant gradient on the relevant motion graph
  • recognise acceleration or deceleration from changing gradient, slope direction or dot spacing
  • describe each labelled interval separately using speed and acceleration rather than vague movement terms
