Slide 7 - Tekstslide

Rearranging the formula
A cyclists accelerates at a rate of 1.26 m/s2 for 6.3 seconds. Calculate his change in speed

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

  • Elevators in in the Yokohama tower in Japan are among the fastest in the world. They accelerate upwards at a rate of 3.125 m/s2 for 4 seconds. Starting from rest, what is their final speed?

  • A cyclists starts a sprint. he accelerates at a rate of 0.325 m/s2 for 12 seconds. He ends up reaching a speed of 9.7 m/s. Calculate his starting speed.







Slide 9 - Tekstslide

Speed-time graphs

Slide 10 - Tekstslide

What type of movement is shown at each part of the graph?
  •  A: Steady acceleration
  • B: Steady speed
  • C Steady acceleration
  • D: increasing acceleration
  • E Decreasing acceleration

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

Slide 12 - Tekstslide

Speed-time graphs

Slide 13 - Tekstslide

What does the area under a graph tell you?
  • Area = length x width

  • Area under speed time graph =  speed x time

  •  speed x time = distance traveled


Slide 14 - Tekstslide

  • A car accelerates at a rate of 13m/s2 for 6 seconds, it reaches a speed of 128 km/h. Calculate its initial speed.

  • A rocket launching  accelerates from rest a rate of 1.5 km/s2 for 8 seconds. Calculate the speed it reaches.

  • A cyclist in the decelerates from 22 m/s to a speed of 37 m/s at a rate of 7,5 m/s2. Calculate the time this took.
