The graph shows the motion of a horse during the first portion of a race. Which statement is true about the horse's motion? (1 point) Responses The horse maintained a constant acceleration during this portion of the race. The horse maintained a constant acceleration during this portion of the race. The horse maintained a constant velocity during this portion of the race. The horse maintained a constant velocity during this portion of the race. The horse decreased its velocity during this portion of the race. The horse decreased its velocity during this portion of the race. The horse increased its acceleration during this portion of the race.
Based on the given information, it is not possible to determine the acceleration or velocity of the horse. Therefore, none of the statements provided can be deemed as true.
To determine the true statement about the horse's motion based on the given graph, we need to analyze the graph.
Since we don't have access to the graph in this text-based format, it is not possible to accurately determine the true statement about the horse's motion. Please provide a description or numerical values of the graph for further analysis.
To determine the statement that is true about the horse's motion, we need to analyze the graph provided.
If the graph shows the motion of the horse during the first portion of the race, we can examine the shape of the graph to determine whether the horse maintained a constant acceleration, a constant velocity, decreased its velocity, or increased its acceleration.
If the graph has a straight line with a constant slope, it indicates a constant velocity. This means that the horse maintained the same speed throughout this portion of the race.
If the graph has a straight line with a changing slope, it indicates a constant acceleration. This means that the horse's speed increased or decreased at a steady rate during this portion of the race.
If the graph has a curve that is concave up (opening upwards), it indicates a decreasing velocity. This means that the horse's speed decreased as time progressed during this portion of the race.
If the graph has a curve that is concave down (opening downwards), it indicates an increasing acceleration. This means that the horse's speed increased at an increasing rate during this portion of the race.
Based on the information given, we can assess the graph to determine the correct statement. Unfortunately, the graph is not provided in the question. Without the graph, it is not possible to determine which statement is true about the horse's motion.
Therefore, the correct answer cannot be determined without the graph.
