    Mechanics Year 1 (AS) Unit Test 7: Kinematics 1 (constant acceleration)

    1 A car is initially travelling with a constant velocity of 15 m s −1 for T s. It then
    T
    decelerates at a constant rate for 2 s, reaching a velocity of 10 m s−1. It then
    3T
    immediately accelerates at a constant rate for 2 s reaching a velocity of 20 m s−1.
    a Sketch a velocity–time graph to illustrate the motion. (3 marks)
    b Given that the car travels a total distance of 1312.5 m over the journey
    described, find the value of T. (4 marks)

    2 A racing car starts from rest at the point A and moves with constant
    acceleration.of 11 m s−2 for 8 s. The velocity it has reached after 8 s is then
    maintained for T s. The racing car then decelerates from this velocity to 40 m s −1 in
    a further 2 s, reaching point B.
    a Sketch a velocity–time graph to illustrate the motion of the racing car. Include
    the top speed of the racing car in your sketch. (5 marks)
    b Given that the distance between A and B is 1404 m, find the value of T. (3 marks)

    3 A cyclist is descending down a mountain with constant acceleration. She passes


    through three checkpoints, P, Q and R, with velocity 6 m s−1, x m s−1, and 20 m s−1
    repsectively. The time to taken to travel from P to R is 35 s.
    a Find the acceleration of the cyclist. (2 marks)

    t1 4

    Given that t2 3 , where t1 s is the time taken to travel from P to Q and t2 s is the
    time taken to travel from Q to R.
    b Find the value of x. (5 marks)
    c Find the distance between P and R. (2 marks)

    4 A particle P passes through point A with velocity 2.8 m s−1 and constant


    acceleration 0.12 m s−2. Three seconds later a second particle Q passes through A
    with velocity 2.4 m s−1 and constant acceleration 0.2 m s−2.
    a Write down expressions for the displacements of P and Q from A, in terms of t,
    where t s is the time after P passed through A, (4 marks)
    2
    b Show that, when the particles meet, 2t  50t  315  0 (3 marks)
    c Find the distance from A when the two particles meet. (5 marks)

    5 A ball is thrown vertically upwards with a speed of 16 m s −1 from a point 80 m
    above the ground.
    a Find the speed with which the ball strikes the ground. (4 marks)
    b Find the total time that the ball is more than 85 m above the ground. (6 marks)

    1
    When the ball strikes the ground it rebounds with 5 of the speed with which it
    strikes the ground.
    c Find the greatest height reached by the ball when it rebounds from the floor. (4 marks)
