Fig. 1: A velocity-time graph with time t in seconds on the horizontal axis from 0 to 7 and velocity v in metres per second on the vertical axis. A blue broken line runs through the points (0, 0), (2, 4), (5, -2) and (7, -2). The part above the axis from t = 0 to t = 4 is shaded light blue, and the part below the axis from t = 4 to t = 7 is shaded light red.

← The voltage across a sensor is f(t) = t² volts, where t is the time in seconds, for 1 ≤ t ≤ 4. A data logger reports the mean value of the voltage over these three seconds. What does it report?
A farm tank in a dry region is filled by a pump. The rate of inflow is r(t) = 24 - 3t litres per minute, for 0 ≤ t ≤ 8 minutes, where t is the time since the pump started. How many litres enter the tank in the eight minutes? →
