Marco’s distance and displacement!
3. Determine the DISTANCE and DISPLACEMENT if Nadya moves according to the picture.
4. Lita walks 20 m to the North, 8 m to the South, and 9 m to the West in 10 seconds.
Calculate:
a. Lita’s distance and displacement
b. Lita’s speed and velocity
5. Rico does his morning exercise by running around a field that measures 500 m in length and
250 m in width. He runs the fields 5 times in 60 minutes. Calculate Rico’s average speed
and average velocity in km/h!

7. Father departs from Surabaya to Malang at 09:00 AM and must arrive at 11:00 AM. If the
distance from Surabaya to Malang is 125 km, then the average speed of Father so as not to
be late is ….
8. Mita is 40 m away from the hospital. She rides a motorcycle at a speed of 10 m/s away from
the hospital in 60 seconds. Calculate Mita’s final position and the distance she travels!
9. A truck is moving straight with a constant speed of 50 km/hour for 12 minutes. What is the
distance travelled by the truck?
10. Look at the graph. Calculate the distance travelled by the object for 5 seconds.

from being stationary to traveling at a speed of 1700 m/s in 25 seconds. What is the
acceleration of the satellite?
13. A ball is rolled at a velocity of 12 m/sec. After 36 seconds, it comes to a stop. What is the
acceleration of the ball?
14. A Semarang-Solo bus is moving at a speed of 72 km/hour. When approaching a traffic light
intersection, the driver sees the color of the light change from green, yellow, and finally red.
If the maximum deceleration of the bus is 4 m/s 2, calculate the time it takes for the bus to
stop so as not to pass the limit of the traffic light in front of it!
15. An object moves in a straight line at a constant speed for 36 km/h for 5 seconds then
accelerates with an acceleration of 1 m/s 2 for 10 seconds and decelerates with a deceleration
of 2 m/s2 until the object stops. The (v-t) graph that shows the object's journey is ....
16. From the following graph, determine the total distance.
