Question
Use the graph showing the motion of a person over time to answer the question.
The vertical axis is labeled, position from home (km), and ranges from a 0 km to 14 km. The horizontal axis is labeled, time (minutes) and labeled from 0 minutes to 50 minutes. The graph shows a line that starts from the origin and slopes upward to 12 km at 10 minutes. The line remains at 12 km from 10 minutes to 30 minutes. The line slopes downward from 12 km to 0 km from 30 minutes to 45 minutes.

A box is against a wall. A person pushes on the box, but the box does not move. Is this situation an example of a force?(1 point)
Responses
Yes, this is an example of a force because gravity is pulling the box down.
