Responses
The object has a constant, nonzero velocity.
The object has a constant, nonzero velocity.
The object remains still.
The object remains still.
The object is accelerating.
The object is accelerating.
The object has a position of zero.
The object remains still.
The object remains still.
The correct answer is: The object remains still.
To determine this, we need to understand how position-time graphs work. A position-time graph shows the relationship between an object's position on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis.
In the case of a horizontal line on a position-time graph, it means that the object's position does not change over time. This indicates that the object remains still or at a constant position throughout the entire period being represented on the graph.
To identify a horizontal line on a position-time graph, you need to plot the position at different points in time and observe if the line connecting those points is perfectly horizontal. If it is, that means the object is not changing its position and therefore remains still.
