Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You run from home to a park, accelerating for the first 10 seconds, maintaining a steady pace for the next 30 seconds, and finally decelerating for the last 5 seconds before stopping. Sketch a distance-time graph for your run.
💡 Hint: Think about how distance changes at each phase of your run.
You are in a car that accelerates from 0 to 25 m/s in 10 seconds and then travels at that speed for 20 seconds before moving to a stop in 5 seconds. Draw the speed-time graph for your entire journey.
💡 Hint: Visualize how speed transitions through each part of the journey.
