YOU MUST SHOW YOUR WORK. You can use a calculator but you
must show all of the steps involved in doing the problem.

SPEED

1. If a car travels 400m in 20 seconds how fast is it going?

2. If you move 50 meters in 10 seconds, what is your speed?

3. You arrive in my class 45 seconds after leaving math which is 90 meters away. How fast did you travel?

4. A plane travels 395,000 meters in 9000 seconds. What was its speed?

5. It takes Serina 0.25 hours to drive to school. Her route is 16 km long. What is Serina’s average speed on her
drive to school?

TIME
6. How much time will it take for a bug to travel 5 meters across the floor if it is traveling at 1 m/s?

7. You need to get to class, 200 meters away, and you can only walk in the hallways at about 1.5 m/s. (if you run
any faster, you’ll be caught for running). How much time will it take to get to your class?
8. In a competition, an athlete threw a flying disk 139 meters through the air. While in flight, the disk
traveled at an average speed of 13.0 m/s. How long did the disk remain in the air?

DISTANCE
9. How far can you get away from your little brother with the squirt gun filled with paint if you can travel at 3 m/s
and you have 15s before he sees you?

10. How far can your little brother get if he can travel at 2.5 m/s and in 5 seconds you will discover that his squirt
gun has run out of paint?

12. Distance travelled by a train and time taken by it is shown in the following table,

Time Distance (km)


10:00 AM 0
10:30 AM 25
10:40 AM 28
11:00 AM 40
11:15 AM 42
11:30 AM 50

What is the average speed of the train? At what distance does the train slows down?
