The diagram shows the

distance-time graph for a

distance (km)
plane journey.

1. Describe the journey of

the plane in as much detail
as you can.

2. What distance did the plane travel:

a) in 40 mins b) in 100 mins c) between 2 and 3 hours d)
in of the journey e) in of the journey f) in total
3. Calculate the speed that the plane is travelling at.
4. On one graph, briefly sketch what it would look like if the plane:
a) was travelling at a constant speed but slower
b) was accelerating throughout the whole journey
c) decided to return back half-way through at a constant speed
