This graph is a speed-time graph for a car accelerating from rest: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/820/line206dff54.png/

How long does it take the car to travel half the distance? I'm stuck on this question. How do I work this out? Thank you :)

You will probably get better help in the Physics Group for this question.
But, if it helps, remember distance is the area under a speed-time graph - make use of that fact to solve this.
