1. An athlete runs 200m in 20s. What is his
speed?
speed = distance
time
speed = 200 m
20 s
speed = 10 m/s
2. A bus travels 2000m between stops at a speed of
40m/s. Find the time taken to travel this distance.
speed = distance
time
40 = 2000

3. It takes a cyclist 30s to go 850 m. What is
her speed?
speed = distance
time
speed = 850 m
30 s
speed = 28.33 m/s
4. A walker travels at 3m/s for a distance of 50m.
How long did it take him?

VELOCITY AND SPEED
This car is travelling
at a speed of 20m/s
This car is travelling at a
velocity of 20m/s east
Distance and Displacement
Distance is simply how far something has moved
Man and dog have
walked 3 metres
from X

Displacement is ‘distance in a given direction’
Man and dog have

Acceleration
acceleration (m/s2) = change in velocity (m/s)
time taken (s)
Remember: the formula for acceleration and
deceleration is the same
What does acceleration mean?
The rate at which speed increases
e.g. 5 m/s2
5m/s/s
The speed is increasing by 5m/s every second

2. A sprinter crosses the finishing line at a speed of
8m/s and comes to rest 10s later. Calculate the
deceleration of the sprinter.
acceleration = change in velocity

3. A grand prix car increases its speed from 50m/s
to 120m/s in 3s. What is the acceleration?
acceleration = change in velocity

MASS
15 kg
50 kg
Mass is the amount of matter inside an object.
It is measured in kilograms (kg)
GRAVITATIONAL FIELD STRENGTH
On Earth = 10N/kg
g = 10
To find the WEIGHT of of an object you need to know the relationship
between WEIGHT, MASS and GRAVITATIONAL FIELD STRENGTH
weight (N) = mass (kg) x gravitational field strength (N/kg)
= 1 x 10
= 10 N
1kg
g = 10
10 N
Weight is the force of gravity on a body
and is measured in NEWTONS (N). On Earth
the force on a 1kg object is 10N (g = 10N/kg). On the moon
the force on a 1kg object is 1.67N (g = 1.67N/kg)
What is the weight of the Martian if it lands on
the Earth or the Moon?
50kg
To find the weight of the Martian you need to know:weight (N) = mass (kg) x gravitational field strength (N/kg)
W=MXG
M=W

Earth (g = 10)
50 kg
weight = mass x g
= 50 x 10
= 500 N
Moon ( g = 1.67)
50 kg
Weight = mass x g
= 50 x 1.67
= 83.5 N

What 2 things affect the acceleration of this car?
• MASS measured in kilograms
• RESULTANT FORCE, the difference between the
force due to friction and the force of the engine

ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY
If an elephant and a feather
were dropped from the
same height, which one
would hit the ground first?
Due to air
resistance on
the feather and
the elephants
greater mass
the elephant
would hit the
ground first
If we ignore air resistance
the elephant and feather
would land on the ground at
the same time due to their
ACCELERATION DUE TO
GRAVITY being the same!!!
All objects will accelerate
downwards at the same rate
if air friction is ignored so
they will hit the ground at the
same time!
The acceleration g = 10m/s2
