    1. A train travels 500 km across the Nullarbor Plain in Australia in 12.5 hours. Draw velocity-time and displacement-time graphs to model the journey. Suggest ways the models may differ from reality. 2. A train traveling 80 m/s decelerates at 2 m/s^2 for 30 seconds due to braking. Determine the train's speed and distance traveled during braking. 3. An ocean liner accelerates from 3 m/s to its 15 m/s cruising speed with an acceleration of 0.04 m/s^2. Determine how far it travels to reach cruising speed and how long it takes to travel 2 km from the harbor entrance.

    Physics Worksheet

    Topic: Kinematics
    1. The straightest railway line in the world runs across the Nullarbor Plain in southern Australia, a distance of 500
    kilometers. A train takes 12.5 hours to cover the distance. Model the journey by drawing
    (a) a velocity-time graph
    (b) a displacement-time graph
    Label your graphs to show the numbers 500 and 12.5 and to indicate the unit used. Suggest some ways in
    which your models may not match the actual journey.

    2. A train is travelling at 80 m/s when the driver applies the brakes, producing a deceleration of 2 m/s^2 for 30
    seconds. How fast is the train then travelling and how far does it travel while the brakes are on?

    3. An ocean liner leaves the harbor entrance travelling at 3 m/s, and accelerates at 0.04 m/s^2 until it reaches its
    cruising speed of 15 m/s.
    (a) How far does it travel in accelerating to its cruising speed?
    (b) How long does it take to travel 2 km from the harbor entrance?

    4. A cyclist comes to the top of a hill 165 meters long travelling at 5 m/s, and free-wheels down it with an
    acceleration of 0.8 m/s^2. Write expressions for his speed and the distance he has travelled after t seconds.
    Hence find how long he takes to reach the bottom of the hill, and how fast he is then travelling.

    5. A sprinter in a 100-meter race pushes off the starting block with a speed of 6 m/s, and accelerates at a
    constant rate. He attains his maximum speed of 10 m/s after 40 meters, and the continues at that speed for
    the rest of the race. What is his time for the whole race?
    6. The figure show a map of the railway line from Aytown to City.

    Aytown 9 km Beeburg 7 km City

    The timetable is based on the assumption that the top speed of a train on this line is 60 km per hour; that it
    takes 3 minutes to reach this speed from rest, and 1 minute to bring the train to a stop, both at a constant
    rate; and that at an intermediate station 1 minute must be allowed to set down and pick up passengers. How
    long must the timetable allow for the whole journey
    (a) for trains which don't stop at Beeburg,
    (b) for trains which do stop at Beeburg?

    7. A roller-skater increases speed from 4 m/s to 10 m/s in 10 seconds at a constant rate.


    (a) What is her average velocity over this period?
    (b) For what proportion of the time is she moving at less than her average velocity?
    ( c ) For what proportion of the distance is she moving at less than her average velocity?

    8. A train is slowing down with constant deceleration. It passes a signal at A, and after successive intervals of 40
    seconds it passes point B and C, where AB = 1800 m and BC = 1400 m.
    (a) How fast is the train moving when it passes A?
    (b) How far from A does it come to a stop?

    9. A particle is moving along a straight line with constant acceleration. In an interval of T seconds it moves D
    meters, in the next interval of 3T seconds it moves 9D meters. How far does it move in a further interval of T
    seconds?
