Based on the description given, the position vs. time graph should show the elevator rapidly moving up to the third floor, then stopping to unload passengers, and finally descending back to the ground level. The graph should have a steep positive slope initially, indicating the elevator moving up, then a flat line indicating the elevator stopping at the third floor, and finally a steep negative slope indicating the elevator moving back down to the ground level

Correct! The position vs. time graph should indeed show a steep positive slope at the beginning, indicating the elevator rapidly moving up to the third floor. Then, there should be a flat line indicating the elevator stopping to unload passengers at the third floor. Finally, there should be a steep negative slope indicating the elevator descending back to the ground level. This accurately represents the description given.
