    The document describes a speed-time graph for two incidents involving a boy on a bike and Terminator on a motorcycle. For the boy, the graph shows his speed starting at 0 m/s when he gets on the bike, increasing to 6 m/s when he leaps over a hedge, maintaining 6 m/s until he swerves to avoid a lorry and decreases to 0 m/s when he stops near a bridge. For Terminator, the graph shows his constant speed of 12 m/s until a lorry's tire bursts and it explodes, at which point his speed decreases to 0 m/s. Tasks are described to plot the speed-time data on a graph and calculate distances and acceler

    Speed–Time Graphs

    Task 1
    Complete the tables below. The time starts when the boy gets on the bike.

    Bike
    Boy gets Leaps bike Lorry hits Bike goes Bike stops
    swerves in
    Incident on bike over first car down near
    front of
    [A] hedge [B] [D] ramp [E] bridge [F]
    lorry [C]

    Speed
    0 6 6 9 9 0
    (m/s)

    Time (s) 0

    We first see Terminator Terminator’s


    Lorry’s tyre Lorry
    Incident Terminator shoots at bike drops
    is burst [H] explodes [I]
    [G] gate chains into drain

    Speed

    (m/s)

    Time (s)

    Task 2

    1. Plot the results above on a speed-time graph, with the x-axis labelled time and the y-axis
    labelled speed.
    2. The points at which the boy changes motion should be labelled with the letters A, B, C, etc.
    The point (0,0) should be labelled A.
    3. You should now divide the area beneath the line into 5 triangles and 4 rectangles by drawing
    vertical lines from each of the points to the x-axis. The trapezium should be split into a
    rectangle and a triangle to allow you to find the gradient of the straight line.

    Calculate the area to work out the following distances:


    A to B B to C C to D D to E
    E to F F to G G to H H to I

    Total distance =

    Calculate the gradient to work out the following accelerations:


    A to B B to C C to D D to E
    E to F F to G G to H H to I
