Question

Use the graph to answer the 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, position, and acceleration
velocity, position, and acceleration

velocity and acceleration
velocity and acceleration

velocity only
velocity only

velocity and position

Answer 1

For Line B on the velocity versus time graph, which slopes upward from the origin to the upper right corner, the velocity of the object is increasing over time. Since velocity is increasing, the position of the object is also increasing because a positive velocity indicates that the object is moving in the positive direction.

Acceleration represents the rate of change of velocity. Since the velocity of the object is continuously increasing in a linear manner (as indicated by the straight line), we can infer that the acceleration is also positive.

Therefore, the correct response is:

**velocity, position, and acceleration**.
