Question 3 is based on the motion graph shown below.

John ran out of the school gates but slowed down because of a crowded bus-stop. He
kept walking until he reached the ice-cream man. Once he reached, he realised he did not
have enough money, so he ran back to his friend Jane to borrow some cash.

3. a) How far was Jane from the ice-cream man?

[1]

b) What was John’s speed as he ran back to Jane?

[2]

c) Draw a line on the graph to show John running back to the ice cream man [1]
in 8 seconds.
