Distance, speed and acceleration – WJEC Distance-time graphs of motion. ... Part of Physics (Single Science) Forces, space and radioactivity.

With this distance and time value, I can simply plug it into the kinematic equation and solve for the acceleration. This would give an acceleration of 0.1053 m/s 2 .

In this time it covers a distance of 20 s × 12 m/s = 240 m, the area of the rectangle. From 20 to 30 seconds the car decelerates or slows to a stop at 30 seconds.
