Question 1

1(a)1 mark

Model trains move along a track passing through two model stations, A and B. Students analyse the motion of a model train. They start a digital timer as the train starts to move. They record the time it enters Station A and the time it enters Station B.

Calculate the time taken from the train entering Station A to the train entering Station B. State your answer in seconds.

Model trains move along a track passing through two model stations, A and B. A faster train takes 54 s to travel from Station A to Station B. The distance between the stations is 120 m.

Calculate the average speed of this train.
