In this graph, a bus is:

• moving

• standing still (stationary)

• speeding up (accelerating)

• slowing down (decelerating)

It is TRUE that (more answers possible):

• the graph shows a steep slope line.

• the speed is steady in the graph.

• a bus is moving forward.

• a bus is returning back.

This line shows that:

• the bus is at a bus stop

• the bus is gradually slowing down (decelerating)

In this graph,

• the bus is gradually speeding up (accelerating).

• the line is curved.

• the bus is gradually slowing down (decelerating).

• none of the above.

In this scenario,

• the bus drove fast through the streets for 20s, and then it started to return back to the depo.

• the bus had a steady speed for 80s.

• the bus drove fast through the streets for 20s, but then it lowered the speed around the main square.

• the bus drove 400m total.

This line is:

• curved

• vertical

• horizontal

• none of these

In this graph, a bus:

• drives from Nebusice to Kladno, stops in Kladno at 17:45, and returns to Nebusice.

• drives from Nebusice to Kladno, stops in Kladno at 17:15, and returns to Nebusice.

• drives from Nebusice to Kladno, stops in Kladno at 17:45, and continues to Slany.

• drives to Kladno and back without stopping.
