    Speed (m/s) = distance travelled (m)

    time taken (s) Speed, Distance and Time

    1) Oli walks 200 metres in 40 seconds. What is his speed?


    ___________
    2) Ella covers 2km in 1,000 seconds. What is her speed?
    _____________
    Speed = Distance / 3) How long would it take Grace to run 100 metres if she runs at
    Time 10m/s? ________
    Time = Distance /
    Speed 4) Alex runs to the shop to buy the new Fallout game and travels at
    Distance = Speed x 50m/s for 20s. How far does he go? ______________

    6) A car drives 200m in 5s. Calculate the speed of the car. ___________
    7) A person walks for 500s and travels a total distance of 850m. Calculate the average speed
    of the person. _________________
    8) A rocket is fired at 200m/s, how far would it travel in 15s? ________
    9) A spaceship travels 5000m at a speed of 123,000m/s. Calculate the time taken for the
    spaceship to travel this distance at this speed. ________________
    10) A marathon runner can run at a constant pace of 8m/s for a whole marathon of 42km.

    INSTRUCTIONS
    1 Plot your results on a graph.
    2 Draw a straight line through the points that fit
    best.
    3 Describe the pattern shown by your results. Use
    numbers in your answer if possible.
    4 Do your results match your prediction? Explain
    your answer.
    5 Describe two ways you could improve your
    experiment.
    ANALYSIS - Use your
    graph to find out:
    At which height was the
    speed the highest.
    At which height did the
    car achieve the furthest
    distance.
    Use your graph and results to come to a conclusion.

    Were our hypothesis correct?

    A) As the angle increases the speed increases


    B) As the angle increases the distance travelled
    increases

    Hypothesis A was____________ our results showed that
