Question

A velocity versus time line graph shows three lines. The vertical axis is labeled, velocity, and the horizontal axis is labeled, time. Line A moves to the right from a point on the vertical axis above the origin parallel to the horizontal axis. Line B slopes upward from the origin to the upper right corner. Line C moves to the right from a point on the vertical axis below the origin parallel to the horizontal axis.

Which quantity or quantities is/are increasing for the object represented by Line B?

(1 point)
Responses

velocity only
velocity only

velocity, position, and acceleration
velocity, position, and acceleration

velocity and acceleration
velocity and acceleration

velocity and position

Answer 1

For the object represented by Line B, which slopes upward from the origin to the upper right corner of the velocity versus time graph, the following quantities are increasing:

1. Velocity is increasing because the line slopes upwards.
2. Position is also increasing because an increase in velocity over time results in a change in position in the positive direction.
3. Acceleration may be positive if the velocity is increasing consistently over time.

Based on these points, the best response is:

velocity, position, and acceleration.
