Kinematics Problems Worksheet

This physics worksheet covers problem solving related to motion. It contains 6 problems involving calculations of average velocity and acceleration using concepts like uniform motion, non-uniform motion, and interpreting displacement-time graphs. The problems require calculating speeds, distances, times and accelerations for objects like swimmers, buses, cars and other moving objects.

1 An athlete swims from the north end to the south end of a 50.0 m pool in 20.0 s and
makes the return trip to the starting position in 22.0 s.

a What is the average velocity for the first half of the trip?

b What is the average velocity for the second half of the trip?

c What is the average velocity for the roundtrip?

2 A bus travels 280 km south along a straight path with an average velocity of 88 km/h to
the south. The bus stops for 24 min. Then, it travels 210 km south with an average
velocity of 75 km/h to the south.

a How long was the total trip?

b What is the average velocity for the whole trip?


3 Find the acceleration of each of the following objects.

(a) Objects X accelerates uniformly from rest and attains a velocity of 10 m/s in 50 s.

(b) Objects Y accelerates from 10 m/s to 20 m/s in 4 s.

(c) Object Z decelerates uniformly from 20 m/s and comes to rest in 25 s.

4 A car accelerated from 6 m/s to 12 m/s in 10 s.

(a) What was the acceleration of the car?

(b) Sketch the velocity-time graph of the car on the axes provided.
(c) What was the distance travelled by the car in 10 s.

5 A car travels at a uniform velocity of 5 m/s in the first 10 s and returns to its starting
point in 6 s. Sketch the displacement time graph of the car on the axes provided.

6 The displacement-time graphs of four objects are shown below. Deduce the velocity of
each object.
