Key learning points

Distance–time: gradient = speed; horizontal = stationary.
Speed–time: gradient = acceleration; area under graph = distance.
Average speed = total distance ÷ total time (not the mean of speeds).

Worked example 1 — Average speed

$120\,\mathrm{km}$ in $2.5\,\mathrm{h}$ . Average speed?

Working

48\,\mathrm{km/h}

Total distance ÷ total time.

Worked example 2 — Distance-time gradient

Rises $30\,\mathrm{km}$ in $0.5\,\mathrm{h}$ . Speed?

Working

60\,\mathrm{km/h}

Gradient = speed.

Worked example 3 — Area under speed-time

Speed $20\,\mathrm{m/s}$ for $8\,\mathrm{s}$ . Distance?

Working

160\,\mathrm{m}

Area = distance.
