CAIE IGCSE Physics 1.2.7 Area Under a Speed Time Graph to Questions question 1

[Maximum number: 2]

A car accelerates uniformly in a straight line from rest at time t=0. At t=3.2 st=3.2 \mathrm{~s}, the speed of the car is 13.0 m/s13.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}.

The car travels at 13.0 m/s13.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} from t=3.2 st=3.2 \mathrm{~s} to t=12.0 st=12.0 \mathrm{~s}.

Determine the distance travelled by the car between t=0 and t=3.2 st=3.2 \mathrm{~s}.
